Once upon a time, I lived in Virginia. In my little weaving studio in the woods I had an apprentice named Jennifer. She was an art student whose creative brain never stopped. She constantly reminded me to not take life too seriously. Fifteen plus years later and she's still making me laugh. Check out her blog, Squirrel Picnic, where she creates wild and wacky critters in crochet who have all sorts of adventures AND she gives away free patterns so you can make them too.

She challenged her readers to make their own croshades. I couldn't resist the challenge. I crocheted a couple pair of my own and took them along on a recent visit to Roswell's Alien Museum.

Thank you so much, Lois, for sharing this with your friends. Some of my fondest memories are of learning to weave in your studio in Virginia. I wish I lived closer to you now -- I'd take all your classes!
ReplyDeleteIf only we did live closer, I could learn so much from you, too. Thanks for the memories. Some day we'll make more, I'm sure!
