Crochet Hat in Progress

| 0 comments

I finally have had a chance to get started on one of the hats from Drew Emborsky’s book, In All Caps. It’s the beret on the front cover, and am using Red Heart Eco-Cotton Blend yarn in the color denim. I love working with this yarn because it feels great. It’s kind of hard to explain. It is soft, but not soft like baby yarn, more like smooth feeling when it runs through your fingers as you stitch.

Hopefully, it will come out right. I am still not that great at following patterns, and while this is labeled “easy” in the book, well, I’m not very confident about my abilities. I’m so used to doing “no brainer” type projects because primarily I crochet in the evenings while watching TV, and this has required me to count and keep track of where I’m at and what I’m doing.  I’m trying not to rush it, but I sure hope I get it done by the time we get some cold weather around here.

Welcome to the Crafty Princess Diaries, my weblog and site where I get to blab about my passion for crafts, primarily jewelry making, and my crafting career. My name is Tammy Powley, and I decided to call my blog the Crafty Princess Diaries because of this very dorky picture I have of myself and because my husband often refers to me as “the princess and the pea,” which is just another way to say that I tend to be particular sometimes. Along with this weblog, I have a number of jewelry making books published.
