April! March Reverberates. Duplet Inspires!

The International FreeForm Crochet Along and my preparation for the international freeform association's annual challenge continues to keep me hopping.

I had hoped to post my progress on the NatCroMo experience here-- but I was too deeply immersed. If you would like to see pictures of the experience they're here on my Ravelry project page.

 I am still drinking deep of the crochet elixir that is Duplet magazine.

Here's my latest deciphering, that i just realized is not 100% what was written, so
I intend to make another. It's show with an E hook and Worsted weight yarn.
Just what a leaf lover like me enjoys!

Flower Necklaces

It might as well be spring. But the snow floating through the screen here on the 12th floor says otherwise. April April
no showers, crystla water.

Yet i felt it arrive before this retreat and I've been making lots of flowers, teaching designing. Had a furhter thought on my
leaves and I am still enamored of felting/fulling.

I finally finished and mailed two necklaces to two wonderful women who have aided me in this dire time.
The red charm necklace is on its way to Jacqui who loves red.


The flower necklace is on its way to the mandala maven, Claude Aimee.

Spring Hat Again

I wanted it, but know I need to make product and so made it again, but this time for myself.... which freed me. I made thee crown roomier and the band a little smaller and added several of my leaves. I think I will add more, over time.
