Grrr... where is it?

My Susan Bates H hook is missing! All I can find are the sucky Boyes ones! Wah!

Gotta start planning for the next crochet class. I think I'll show them how to make amigurumi pumpkins.

Teaching Crochet Today

A group of people from work are having me show them how to crochet. It's after work today, hopefully it goes smoothly.

I'm going to spend some time tonight after work on clearing some more junk out of the upstairs front bedroom. I will go through the crap on the one table and clear it out, and maybe decide what fabric to keep and what to get rid of. And maybe I'll dismantle the sewing desk and put the pieces out on the curb. Trash pickup isn't till Friday though. But the neighbors can get used to the redneck-edness ;)

Dead Eye the Octopirate! And a little stash clearing...

Well, I got the Octopirate all done now - his hat is finished! Yay!

I finished the body of a little bird while watching a movie with my firend Kat. She got some of my old straight needles since I don't use them anymore. I still have some other ones to get rid of. Not sure if I'll offer them as a lot on eBay. I could use a little pocket money :)

I'm going to try and clear out something from the house each evening so I can pare everything down in preparation for moving.

The crocheting part is all finished. He turned out great - I love the peg leg :)

I may still make him a tricorn hat with a skull and crossbones, or maybe a red and white striped headscarf. Not sure yet.
