It's been busy, busy, busy at school the past few weeks... I have several projects to photograph and show you but have not had time to put it all together! By the time I get home and think about it, I realize that I was so busy at school that I forgot to take pictures! The above wreath is my grapevine wreath that sits on my fireplace mantel.
Here it was at Christmas time.
I spent an afternoon during Spring Break crocheting some pretty flowers for it. It was still cold and un-spring like outside and I needed some thing that felt like Spring! I also stuck in some of the pussy willows that had started to bloom outside.
Some colorful crochet from this winter... I became obsessed with infinity scarves. They are so much easier to wear than a regular scarf! I could wear them doubled around or loose like a shawl around my shoulders. Kept me warm all winter!
Taught myself how to crochet Crocodile Stitch after Christmas...
...and crocheted this shawl!
I will try to remember to take some photos this week of all the different projects we have been working on and give you all an over view this weekend of whats been happening in my art room! :)
Lovely to see you 'pop' up on my sidebar just now! I have missed your interesting posts! You certainly have been busy and great to see your crocheting too. I always think how lucky your classes are to have such an inspiring teacher. Thankyou for you your post, Mrs A

Hi Sue! The chamomile was from , 100 Flowers to Knit and Crochet by L. Stanfield, the little yellow flower was adapted from flower patterns in, Crochet Bouquet by S. Thompson. The daisies are from squirrelpicinic.com . I'm happy with how the the shawl turned out. i tried different yarns until i found one that worked up nice. :)
DeleteHi....just came across this post again....looking at crocodile st, I had forgotten I had commented once already...been learning the crocodile st myself yesterday as a challenge to learn a new st....next stop a shawl I think but not so deep as you have made....still love it though. X
