A Little Facebook Challenge

My Pond friends Beth and Chrissy and I were talking about a crocheted cowl pattern that Bethie posted to my Facebook. I decided to see if could make one in an hour like the gal had said in the link.

I clicked on the Lion Brand website to get the pattern. OK looks easy enough.  But wait...a size P hook?!? I ain't got no size P hook! I dug through my other crochet hooks, the wooden ones until I found the biggest one.

  Next I dug through the bulky yarn stash. I had some of Thick n Quick but not enough to make the cowl so I grabbed the ball of teal. 

After a quick swatch I realized it wasn't bulky enough so I added a strand of Yellow Gold.

I set the Timer and away I went!

45 minutes later it was done!

I apologize for the Green Bay colors lol.

CQJP January Submission

Sometimes I can't think outside the box very well. I found a blank journal one of the vendors was giving away up at the energy conference and I decided it would make a great place to start the CQJP thingy....too bad I forgot to take a picture of the blank journal. (My brain still isn't functioning too well after the wreck. I am not physically hurt but mentally I am in shambles.)

Anyways.......... I covered the journal and now I think I will add all my upcoming blocks into it. I can glue a few pages together to make them stronger (something I learned from a book called Altered Art by Terry Taylor I checked out of the library). I can also keep a diary if I so choose. Wow.... a plan. Plans are good.
