Just trying to keep busy...

Ryan has been a busy man studying for classes and boards so I have had to figure out things to do with my time when Dane is down for the night. I have started a couple of projects but have only finished this so far. I learned how to crochet when I was probably 12 and haven't tried it since so I was actually impressed that I remembered how to do it. I wanted a cute headband/ ear-warmer thingy for the winters (in utah of course not AZ). I did the headband pretty easy but wanted something else so I somehow made up a flower pattern and think that it turned out pretty cute. Hopefully I can get some use out of it this Christmas:)

Now I need to decide if I am going to leave the "ear-warmer" like this...
Or if I'm going to tuck the petals under so the flower is not as big. What do you think??

I'm way impressed with your skills...but no help on what to do with the flower - fashionably challenged over here.

Do you guys always head to Utah for Christmas? We didn't this year - I'm tired of LEAVING Arizona when it's beautiful, so I've decided to try to get up there more during the summers instead.

I like the petals tucked under, but you're the type that can pull off any look - and the petals would be pretty out, too. :) I love the little project. Great talent!

SO cute, Carlie!! I don't even know how to crochet. You'll have to teach me. I like both ways.

I like the petals tucked! Lookes so cute by the way. I need to stop watching like 4 hours of T.V. at night when Jordan is studying and start up Crocheting or something. It was fun seeing you at the Egg hunt. You look amazing by the way. So little!
