{Ashley} Crochet mishap (3 photos).

I’ve spent the last day immersed in my collection of yarn, trying to figure SOMETHING out to do with it all. I’d pick up one skein, chain a bunch of loops, start an imaginary project, then unravel it all. I must of done this at least a dozen times.

Finally, I just “went with it.” I took two yarns, Red Heart’s Super Saver & Sensations Cello, and chained a length of about maybe 8 inches or so, and double crocheted up. I had NO IDEA what I was going to make…

When I got to a height of probably about twelve or fourteen inches, I was running out of Cello yarn, so I had to figure something out to do with my little swatch. I folded it in half, and single crocheted up the sides to make a pouch/purse. I figured I could crochet a strap, and have my mom sew in a liner.

Well, me being the goon that I am, I stuck the purse on my head. Voila! Instant hat with faux ears!

In other news, it’s quite the shitty day. It’s shitty outside, it’s shitty inside, I’m bored, I’m cranky. poooo. I need a pick-me-up badly.
