Crochet Me Crazy

The owner's horse, Belle, gave us some problems today getting her in her stall to feed tonight. She let her out in the yard to eat today and every time Michael or I tried to get within a 100 feet of her, she would take off! Very uncharacteristic for her as she is a very well trained, expensive horse who usually doesn't act up. She usually goes right in her stall without much prodding. I had to go get her mother. She thought about running from her too but then thought better of it. She got her and put her in her stall. I think Belle ruined her chances of getting out to the green grass tomorrow!

It's cold today and I tried to stay inside as much as possible. I had to bring Alison to her friend's house to practice her dance and Michael needed to go to town but after that I spent most of the afternoon crocheting. I started on the new pattern I bought on Etsy. I came to a problem in the pattern though and I have written the author about it. I believe it's an error but I'll wait and see what she says. So I had to stop progress on that, Then I remembered I had plans to try figuring out how to make a Wiggly Crochet hat so I started on that. It's pretty easy to do. Just make the rows of mesh for your wiggles and ta-da! This is as far as I got today.



I'll finish this up tomorrow! I might be able to get this pattern written out for you too.

Another thing I got caught up doing tonight was going back through old blog posts and adding tags. I started at the beginning and saw that there was (and still is) a WHOLE LOT of untagged crochet content on my blog. I would love to get it all tagged but I can see this is going to take me awhile. I didn't use the tags when I first started blogging. Of course, it was interesting to read old post and what was going on. Boy, has life changed and we have had a good life! I had to laugh when I read this blog post though....
Crochet Me Crazy: Stash Flash!
It was my yarn stash! Oh my goodness, I have probably 3-4 times that amount of yarn now! Little did I know how much it would grow! He he...
I also noticed that before I posted this post...there is 1000 BLOG POSTS on my blog! Wow! Well, you have to at least give it to me that I have been consistent. I started this blog back in 2005 and here I am still blogging in 2012 -- 7 years later! Wow, and still crocheting too....

My poor husband finished his last job at 10:00 pm tonight. Since he had an 1 1/2 hour drive to come home, and would have to wake up at 4:30 and drive that same 1 1/2 hours again, he just decided to sleep in his truck. Boy, can't wait for this training to be over so he doesn't have to make that drive! I don't know how he's doing it. He's exhausted.

Well, goodnight --- my sweet daughter is sleeping with me tonight since Daddy is gone!
