As much as I love Halloween, I rather spaced on doing anything crafty - well except for this bracelet:
Hallo'een BangleThat was fun. The creamy green beads reminded me of green cartoon Frankenstein creatures - neck bolts, zippery stitches and all. So the bracelet was always going to be panels of Halloween colors stitched together in crochet. The original vision failed miserably and I spared myself (and anyone else clinically sensitive to exposure from crochet disasters) the photography of it. Let's just say - wanted stitchy bustier style chains got weird bowed and buckled circle of Pringle-like crochet inclusions. Anyway, I found something I liked and the thing is fun to wear.
However, I couldn't let the day pass without a cat tribute, so true to form I spent the entire day making this orange-eyed kitty (been really into beads lately) and ... da da da dah! (phonetically spelled drumroll, please):

Great Pumpkin Kitty !Although I don't know how sincere a corn syrup pumpkin patch can be...
:-)
Hoping y'all had the happiest of Halloweens!
Hook on!

ReplyDeleteI get these ideas in my head and they MUST be let out. Glad someone does appreciate them enough to drop the line/comment.
Would love to see the candy corn hat... it's given me a wicked little idea. Back to the hook.
Thanks again
