Let's See How We Do Today

No trouble with loading my picture today and as you can see it seems to be typing for me just fine. Happy day!

Here's something I just whipped up. I had this Light & Lofty yarn laying around for ages. I used the same pattern I've been using, minus one double, double crochet row. I'm sure that's not how you say it but hopefully you get my meaning. I posted the instructions for this on Monday I believe.

Oh, the flowers on the ends are simple due to the thick fuzzy nature of this yarn. Just make a 5 chain connected circle then chain 2. From here I half double crocheted 12 around, yes that makes 13. To finish slip stitch into the first one. Then sew on, have fun.

Rant - Scarf - Rant

It took every ounce  of patience I have to get these pictures loaded. Between Blogspot's revisions and my spotty internet I'm amazed I could post today at all! But as you can see I've at least finished 1 ethereal scarf. Craft stores don't seem to be selling as much eyelash yarn as they once did so no purple. I'll try the other craft stores though, the one I went to was closest. I have 3 of the major ones in the area.
Skittles is my lovely assistant today. I think she likes the brown fuzzy stuff!
My human daughter on the other hand said it looked like a caterpillar.
This is a fun scarf to make.
OK, now a mini rant, I believe Blogspot has forced this new and improved system down my throat. I say this because it was an option in the past advertised as new and improved which I rejected due to the fact that it was hard to work with. I guess I'm stuck with it now. Overall the biggest problem is getting it to type. I had better check out their help, hadn't I!
