As you grow older you will discover that you

have two hands.

One for helping yourself, the other for helping others. " Audrey Hepburn

Hot Outside!! Vacation Crochet and Other Cute Crochet to Make!


Photo: When it hurts to look back.. and you're scared to look ahead.. you can look beside you and your best friend will be there...

  
Photobucket
This is a really cute idea for your plants..

My favorite love the African Violet best
Photobucket
I think these could be made by making a headband and using it for the flower pots with enlarged
coasters as the doily underneath??? Sounds about right.


The lining is brown and colored polka dots that match the middle of the flower.
This is a pretty bag made using Tunisian stitches.

Helenismos makes plant pot covers using T-shirt yarn with simple single crochet
just mix up the colors.



Ok now to show you what I made over the 4th of July


I made another snood this one is cotton yarn

from the back, it has a black bow and beads on the front
