Fiber Arts Friday – Crochet Cotton

Welcome back Fiber Arts Friday followers!

This week was crochet cotton week.  I picked some up on sale and decided to play around with it and here are the 2 projects I’ve been playing with.

In the past I’ve told you about the crochet horse fly bonnets my mother-in-law makes and again I tried my hand at making my own.  I still don’t quite have it right so there’ll be a few more failed attempts to show you along the way I’m sure. I don’t think my model horse Fay liked the crochet ears much either.  Just look at that face.

My next project was my very first dish cloth.  Yes surpisingly I have never made one.  I think normally most people start learning to crochet by making one but not me.  My first crochet project ever was a huge afghan.  Darn thing took me 7 months to finish.  Ok I’m off track again. Tada! I present you lemon and lime dish cloth.  My hubby hates it, says it’s too 70’s looking so it’ll probably go to someone who will appreciate it more. 

The pattern I used can be found HERE.

Lastly tomorrow starts Tour de Fleece!  I just got my roving from Wonder Why Gal’s shop and can’t wait to spin every day for almost a month!
