hello, my little bugaboos!
so i've been crocheting the past couple of days. i was trying to crochet a slouchy beret, we have them in at spencer's, but if i can make it it would save me about twelve dollars! i did find a cute pattern for snowflake beret, very openwork and pretty, but i came across a bunch of stitches that i didn't understand. but in the first three or four rounds, i accidentally made a floppy flower! put together another floppy flower and made this:
not too bad, but it did inspire me to find a free use pattern for a better flower. finally found one on youtube, as far as i know it's free use, it doesn't say otherwise (i always check my patterns, especially if i'm trying to make new stuff for bugglettes) but i'm gonna double check on it before i put anything in the shop. it literally takes about five minutes to make one of these, so i've make about fifteen and have just been layering them for different things, like hair clips and such.
while making these flowers, i used my thick scarf yarn and made a SUPER HUGE FLOWER. it's a little too big and heavy for a hair clip, so i turned it into a headband/earwarmer!
on me it's an ear warmer, like earmuffs without the muffs. :B
but on somebody with a lot of hair, like long thick hair that could hold up to the thickness of this thing, it could easily be pushed behind the ears and worn as a thick headband and the weight of the hair in the back would hold it in place.
but seriously, look at that flower! it's huge! better pics should be up on the facebook page tomorrow (hopefully)!
love and buttons, tiffers.
