IngaViolet's Journal, 02 October 2015

Hi IngaViolet, I thought about you yesterday and was reminded that you wanted to see the sweater I have been crocheting. Well, after all that work, the sweater is way too big for me. I was shocked because I am very good at crocheting and had followed the gauge and pattern closely. I was working it up in Caron Simply Soft ~ LimeLight. If you want to see the pattern, google Spring Green Sweater, (my shade of green is more cheery than what is shown.) I forgot, there will be many images. The model is a pretty blonde wearing a macrame necklace, the sweater~ of course, brown tank and jeans. That outfit is sooo me! The only change was the yarn color and that huge tacky button! After a lot of sighs and thought, I have decided to spend part of this rainy day frogging my sweater. Frogging, is a crochet term meaning ripping out my work. I'll rewind each piece and label them. Later I can decide to have a go at this pattern again or make something else from the yarn. Right now I am sick and tired of lookin' at it! Y FatSecret is trying to resolve the problem of me not being able to record challenge participation. I want you to know I am participating, just not visibly. Have a healthy day! 

Thanks! Every time I've tried to crochet a piece of clothing for myself it didn't come out right neither.:( I don't know what it is. So I just stay with crocheting doilies, table clothes and similar décor stuff. It's relaxing and I don't need to worry as much about a fit. I'll google the image thanks for letting me know. I'm glad to hear that you're participating. I'm sure a lot of people are busy, and I don't get to record things neither. I'm sorry to hear you're still having troubles with the site. You have a wonderful weekend! :) 

@IngaViolet Do you have a favorite crochet site? 

No, I just use old magazines :) "Magic Crochet" and etc, I get them on Ebay... So I can watch TV and crochet at the same time ;) 

I crochet while watching TV also. I find crocheting relaxing and it keeps my hands busy.
