Same Thing, Different Day....


Okay, so I think that by now it is obvious that I am addicted to crochet, hence my yarn obssesions. Anyway, now I am addicted to youtube. No the two do not necessarily mesh together. So, imagine my amazment when found some spanish yarn commercials.





Guys, let me know which one you like the most... I think it was very cute.

I got it to work, Thanks Debb

Surprise, Surprise....

Look at the treat that I had waiting on me when I got home. I'm only mad that I am getting to it so late, because I can't start on anything. Sorry for the bad pic, still using my camera phone. I so high tech, ya'll.



This is a book by Beth Doherty of "Gourmet Amigurumi", containing all original amigurumi patterns by Doherty. Now, I read a couple things last year that amigurumi means "a stuff toy, stitched (crocheted or knited) in a round". In her book Beth gives a detailed break down of the meaning of amigurumi. Here it is as she puts it in her intro--(not word for word)
"Amigurumi-pronounced ah-mee-guh-ROO-mee, Ami is short for the word Amimie meaning "stitch" in Japanese. Gurumi is a hyphenation of the Japanese word Nuigurumi, meaning "stuffed doll or toy". Anyway, if I have to pick a favorite(s), it somewhere between Strawbeary, Beat Nik Kitty (Hep Cat), and Fawn. Enough with the book report , just go out and pick up a copy of this book.

SIMPSONIZE ME....





It's been awhile. A lot of things have been going on. Anyway,here is what I'd look like if i were a simpson's character. I haven't seen the movie, my little sister simpsonized me. She loves "
The Simpsons", can we all say fanatic. She totally got me down packed, I'm always somewhere, arms folded with a smirk on my face (the librarian's stare, that's what she calls that look). Well there is not really anything going on in my life right now, so that's all folks.
