Just a quick post

Watch this space, I'm on the way back!

I've lost my Mo Jo?

This is all of the crocheting that I have done in the past few weeks and I haven't enjoyed making any of them. It's been such a drag to pick up the hook and find a new project. It has not helped being in and out of hospital and back and forth to doctors and specialist's, it's so depressing and I can't find my mo jo for my love of crochet. I still have the table full of UFO'S to get to and that is not like me at all. Is it a slump or my medical condition or both?

This is the beginning of an afghan pattern called Sun Bonnet Sue

Sun Bonnet Sue is made first, then you crochet the square around her.
I lost interest and only did 4 squares.
2 small baby jackets, I haven't even put buttons on them yet.
This is a singlet type top for me for summer. I'm very pleased with it, just a little large on me, but it will be a nice loose fit for those hot Summer days. I'll wear a singlet top underneath. This took me a week to make, where I would have usually had it done in 2 days.
So how do I get my enthusiasm back? Not just for crochet but for every day things.

I HAVE A KNIFTY KNITTER

This is my new Knifty Knitter, thanks to Omadonna over at HG message boards. I have been on the board since my early days of crochet and my American Sisters there are always so helpful and complimentary too. I was looking for a knifty knitter on the webb with out much luck, we do not have this type available here in OZ so I asked for some help on the board and Omadonna had one she did not use. I paid her the shipping fee and a very small price for the knitter it's self.

Thank You Omadonna.

Pattern Book Stand

We've all got one of those large pattern books that is difficult to hold or stand while reading.

So here is my new idea.

Music stand holder becomes my new pattern book holder.

This was a recent second hand find.

Not only does it fold flat for storage, it makes a lovely decorative item in my room.
