Something Sunday & Crochet

Crochet Bag

 My 3 favorite things!
My Apple!
My Yarn!
My Frap!
yes it would be in that order

Neat Ripple on my Hook

Since I haven't crocheted a bag for myself, 
I've had to use what's on hand instead.
This bag was a door gift from a convention
I attended 9 yrs ago for CTMH.
(Close To My Heart ~ Stamping) 
I've since changed hobbies!!!  :)
My stamps sat for about 8 yrs and 
I never really used them.  I guess my 
heart wasn't really into it!

I also wanted to show how simple
I am at the moment.  I carry my yarn
in plastic grocery bags to keep it clean.

5 (1.9mm) Boye Steel Hook

As for the "NEW" hook....
I had to move up a few sizes from a 7 to a 5
in order to get the hang of it better.
Thread crocheting is tough for this beginner
and since I joined the Snowflake CAL
I needed to get this butt in gear and 
quit anguishing over the size 7 hook.

Happy Sunday, Happy Hooking!
