Crochet Me Crazy

I'll admit I wasted too much time today searching for and downloading free patterns from Ravelry today! I don't go there very often and I don't utilize all the features it has to offer. Since I wait so long between visits, there is always so many free patterns I seemed to have missed! So many talented people on that site!! However, with no offense to any of my fair readers, I have to say that I just don't understand some of the attraction to some of the crochet trends these days....some of the patterns I just look at and wonder why would I want to make that? So I guess that's good news for me because that means I won't waste near as much time downloading those patterns! LOL

I worked on making transcripts for the kids over the past two days. I hadn't kept very good records for Michael so his was a bit harder but I have been keeping up with Alison's very well. At this rate, she will be able to graduate early and she has a perfect grade point average. Having her transcript as an ongoing project will also help me to keep her on track with her schooling. I was pretty proud of both transcripts when I was finished.

Well, here is the purse I finished. I used "I Love This Yarn" and I should have used a stiffer yarn on this.



I started on a Watermelon Hat and Scarf today. I'm not going to get far on it though. I realize I need black beads for the watermelon seeds. I'm going to have to pick those up next week.
