WIP Wednesday

I found the most fun pattern ever!  I love it for a few reasons:

1.  Crochets up really quickly.

2.  Pattern is so easy...no need to keep reading the instructions.

3.  Many options for personalization/colors

4.  Gorgeous result.

And get ready..........these photos were taken in my new light box with my.........
iPhone 4!!!!!!!!

You need a light box!!!!!
The notch up at the top is the unfinished thread.........waiting for the 2nd side to be added.  I tucked it under for photo purposes.




This pot holder is halfway done.  There is a second side to it and I can't wait to jazz it up with other colors.  Isn't this the neatest project?  I made this in less than an hour - honestly.  2 months into crocheting........go try this pattern!!  I'm adding this to another project for a friend......and I'm betting she won't see this before I mail it off.  Maybe she'll surprise me.  lol


Free Pattern - Scalloped Pot HolderHERE.

Do you know how I found it?  I ran across Sarah London's blog....and her "iCrochet" page, where folks can add a link to their crochet projects.  It is so inspiring....all those projects.  Check it out!!

I may be joining THESE parties.

  5. Cheri - this is perfect timing! I recently challenged myself to make a beautiful potholder AND to use it (my current potholders are dreadful). Thanks for the great link.
    Your pictures are looking fantastic. Also your crocheting!

  7. Wow those are awesome! My gramma taught me to knit years ago, I'm working on a massive afghan right now, but crocheting looks fun!
