Anyway, promptness aside and figuratively speaking again, if there's a good idea out there, I will EVENTUALLY find it, try it, blog about it and then find out that I am about a year later than everyone else at finding this great 'new' idea!!
It doesn't matter to me at all really..... I am so excited just to learn a new technique or be inspired that out-of-dateness doesn't bother me any more....
and so I bring to you dear friends my latest fun find.....
crocheted ric rac....
love, LOVE, LOVING this....
so quick, so easy and so versatile.
I found a couple of places with instructions on how to actually go about crocheting said ric rac here and here, and it is SO addictive.....
I've been merrily crocheting away for just a few minutes and have got a couple of fairly long lengths of pink hairy 100% merino wool and 100% white cotton ric rac both done on my smallest hook and quite utterly CUTE.
It really does grow quickly.... yay for speedy cuteness!
I may do some even smaller when I get myself a teeny, tiny hook and some thinner thread......
I may do some even fatter with my big hook and some FAT yarn.....
Then I may adorn various items around the place, including cushions, clothes and maybe even a few shelf edges with this BEAUTIFUL stuff....
I may refrain from using it anywhere near Brian's work suits and shirts but do you think a little bit on a tie would work?
