Crochet – If I can do it, you can too.

Crochet cup

It is possible that this little project has hooked this knitter on crochet. I was trying to figure out making rounds using the “magic circle” for simple coasters and forgot to increase.

Slugs on the refrigerator has the tutorial post I was working from.

I held two strands of kitchen cotton together and used an “E” hook.

The bright blue and white of the kitchen cotton was so cheery, I just kept going.
I will probably use it for pencils and pens, if I can keep the cats from playing with it.

 

Wee mischief makers are lurking about… knitted leprechaun for St. Paddy’s Day

If you look very carefully this time of year, you might find evidence of the wee mischief makers lurking about.

They are very quick and could be anywhere…

Inside or out.

So keep watch over your gold coins

Watch out for leprechauns

And your Irish Hooch

Uh oh - The leprechauns are after my hooch

They can be quick little buggers

Leprechaun Hat

And Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Details about the leprechaun hat can be found here. I used the teeny tiny mochimochi gnome pattern for the leprechaun.
