Completed Vest

I kind of feel like I am being squeezed between two pictures. In a way I am. This is the vest, Drew Emborski designed and I am proud to present the finished work .

I now have completed one of the works in progress I had. You can find this pattern at http://thecrochetdude.blogspot.com/

I have other vest and sweater patterns and plenty of yarn to make more than two sweaters. I bought enough before the holidays to keep me busy and took advantage of free shipping.

On another note, I got a hold of this booklet 63 Easy-To-Crochet Pattern Stitches Combine to Make an Heirloom Afghan (Leisure Arts #555). I think that anyone who is interested in learning crochet will benefit from the experience of making this afghan. I am planning to make a crochet-along for next year and post at least a Square a week, that means that by the end of 2006 we will have a completed afghan. So I will probably have to do two a week for a little bit to just make sure I can finish it by December 2006.

Our group http://groups.msn.com/crochetdepot will be participating in this crochet-along as well. WHich by the way you can join easily.

You know what's amazing? When I think that I don't have anything to say, there I go and I start talking. I was talking to a friend the other day about me being shy. As amazing as this may seem to you , I am a very shy person, sometime just insecure and bashful, I will say that I border in the line of lone wolf.

So what has changed? I don't really like being alone, so I try to overcome my shyness by meeting people and being social. In all honesty I care if people like me , but I don't let it affect me if they don't. I have a lot of things that I want to do tonight, I want to get some of my projects organized for the rest of the week, reading material and stuff. OH and just to let you know, I have finished the first set of 9 cds from the book Da Vinci Code. I listen to it when I am crocheting it is a good background entertainment. Well thanks for stopping by and we shall continue maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after. Peldor Joi!
