HS:MS - Quirky - the story of my life!

This pic is of a t-shirt I bought when I was pregnant. I didn't actually know at the time that there are chickens on it!! I just thought it was a really interesting pattern at first glance!! So this is my interpretation of today's prompt, as I think it looks a little peculiar, and the chickens were unexpected lol

I am now furiously crocheting as if my life depended on it, as I dont like this cold much at all!! I tried to do a bit earlier whilst downstairs with the kids, but Shaun grabbed the scarf, and pout his fingers through one of the holes, and made it big!! Shant be doing that again!! I was being a bit optimistic I think when I said it wouldnt take me that long, I want it quite long ao it might take me a little more than a few days!! was worried I had forgotten the stitch when I got to it this morning, but that's the beauty of crochet - it's so easy.

I got a brilliant book - 'Stitch and bitch crochet - the happy hooker', by Debbie Stoller and it is fantastic! I found that the trouble with instructions on crocheting was the stitches varied depending on whether you're looking at English or American literature on it! The stitches have the same names but they're different, e.g. double crochet over here is single crochet over there and so on. But Debbie Stoller's book straightens it all out, and really makes you feel as though you're capable of creating something pretty fabulous! And the designs in her book are brill too. Wow, all that waffle on crocheting. I'll shut up now.

Thanks for stopping by - hope its warm and dry where you are!! Have a good day guys!
