Amy, Julie, me, Molita |
The two hats that I made. (Sorry about the poor picture quality, I took it with my phone.) |
Today I decided to see if I could jazz them up a little bit and add a flower and a button to each of them. I had never tried to crochet flowers before, but with the help of the internet and someone else's blog I learned how to make little flowers and then inserted the button for the center. I am excited to think about all of our little hats going to a local hospital to keep new little babies heads warm. I am particularly excited that my hats are not pink but with the addition of the little flower and button I was able to make them a little girly. I also am particularly fond of Molita's orange hat. Amy got a little fancy and made some type of a rimming on hers. I am excited to try and make a couple on my own and either give them to friends or donate them to the hospital. I love being a part of God's mission in the world and being able to give a gift to people I don't even know.
I am thankful for people who teach me new skills, share new patterns with me, are patient with me while I learn how to do something, and teach me how to do particular things in order to create something new. I pray I am able to pass on some of these skills to others as well.
The looming looks interesting! I love it!
ReplyDeleteLindy, I can totally teach you how to do the looming of hats. It is definitely easy, if I can catch on to it you will be a pro in no time.
ReplyDeleteIt is a very cool project! Seriously, Sarah is GOOD at this sort of thing naturally, and I am not, so if I can get it, you definitely can.
