crochet with me -- no taking just relaxing crochet and music

 

Lots of Finished Items, New WIPs, and a little chit chat

 

Recent Makes....Cause I Am Doing A Thing I Never Thought I Would Do

 SO back the beginning of August I think it was I sent a message to my DIL asking if she wanted to do a craft fair with me.  Actually, she will be the one running the  booth and selling mine and her things.  I totally forgot I has asked and she reminded me last weekend.  SO I have put things on hold for now and am working on making some bags.  I don't have a whole lot made and probably wont get a whole lot made because the craft fair is next weekend.  *gasp*   I plan to dig through my totes of finished items to sell as well.  Hopefully we do good.  If we like this one, there is another one in December we may try to do.

I shared  these kitty cat squares a few weeks back.  Well I made the brown/white ones into bags.  I frogged the teal/cream one.  Here's both sides of the bags

I have also made a tunisian crochet bag

and have another tunisian bag in the works

I need to say this.......

I have posted a couple videos to my  YouTube Channel this month but just can't seem to find time to make more of them and edit them.  Life has apparently been a bit more crazy this whole year.  I have found it easier to blog lately, although I am not totally consistent, I have blogged more than making videos.

In one of my recent videos I mentioned talking about something that has changed my thinking.  Well here it is:

I watched a video, and I can't remember which one now. but the creator said something to the effect "You don't have to be like everyone else.  Just because you watch a video and they are making this or certain things......YOU DON'T HAVE TO MAKE AND DO WHAT THEY ARE DOING."  Well, duh I know that and I could have probably come to that conclusion myself eventually, but I usually don't.  I dunno why.  It's like the "making videos for the memories" like I mentioned in another recent video.  YA that makes sense, but I don't have a big desire to make videos right now.  I would rather take pictures and share them and write about them instead.  Does it take less time?   Again, I dunno.  Is it easier?  I say yes it is, and I can write anywhere I am instead of thinking I have to be in a certain place and things have to be perfect in the background and the lighting perfect, etc.  Am I making sense?  If I am, Yea!  If not, then I just dunno.  

Do I still watch YouTube videos? Absolutely, but not near as many crochet or knit channels as I used to.

I think that's all for now.  If I think of more later I will just make another post.

Well i didn’t make it back on Monday

I didn’t make it back on Monday to report on the weekend WIPs. 

I didn’t actually work on any of them except a couple rows on the Flat Knit Hat. I  did however start a new project instead.  I started a blanket for someone special.  You can check that out in yesterday’s video post, if you haven’t already watched it.
