Here are some of the hats I have been crocheting lately. I just love crocheting hats. They have a quick turn around time and I get an almost instant feeling of accomplishment.
Kathryn crocheted the crown on this little hat. I added the edgings and then also the rose and tag.
This hat I started from the yarn. It was fun to crochet. The picot border isn’t showing well in this photo.
This cream hat is one of my favorites. It is a larger hat and the sequins and cream will look wonderful with anything you choose to wear. I have crocheted many other hats, caps, and scarves. I am going to wait to show you the rest of the things. They will be listing in ChocolateDogStudio and will also be for sale in my booth in November’s Affair of the Heart craft fair in Tulsa, OK.
This week has been a turning point in our lives as we transition back to school. Our youngest daughter started her school on Monday. Our oldest daughter heads back to college to start her senior year. We have been incredibly busy as our oldest son and his wife bought their first home. It needs some cleaning and lots of love to make it a home. Thankfully they have the energy and the time to get it done. Their church family is stepping in with painting and moving help. We are also transitioning some furniture that needs to go to another home.  Some of it is left from my Mom’s home when she moved to her retirement  community, some of it is our old furniture. These are all good things but between the different furniture pieces leaving at different times and the boxes of things headed to college our home feels a little chaotic.  I have been crocheting quite a bit and also going to physical therapy. The physical therapy is definitely needed but it takes every bit of my self control to make myself do the exercises and to also go to class. It just isn’t comfortable and it causes pain. While I know the end results are worth it, a part of me wishes that I could just skip the whole thing.
Talk to you later,
Karen
