Alternative Stitching

I don’t do crochet!  It’s not that I can’t, but rather that there is always something that interests me more - so much to do, so little time!   It’s kind of the same way I feel about needlepoint.  Don’t take me wrong as I love crocheted projects, but I’d prefer to knit, cross stitch or quilt. 

That being said, my daughter sent me a photo and asked if I would crochet a Cabbage Patch wig for the newest baby.  What???  Crochet???  I dug out the old rusty hooks and got busy.   It’s nice to have a baby doll for a model.

While Googling for a pattern, I came across a cute little Minion beanie on You Tube – also in crochet!  Since I was on a crochet roll I figured I’d give it a try as well.  It was a huge hit with the grandchildren.  Now I have requests for a few more.  Guess I may be doing a bit more crochet in the days ahead.
