Robot!

I finished himm! Well all except I can't figure out how to sew the head on.

My first ever crochet project, after teaching myself how to crochet just last monday =]

Omg. So I started a robot! And it is the most adorable thing ever. It's from the Creepy Cute Crochet book. I absolute love it. It is the first thing I've made and I feel like it actually looks really nice. I have it completely done except for the fact that the head and body are not attached because i don't understand her stupid diagram for it. (like in the diagram it looks like you just pass a thread through the connection 3 times and that's it... uhmm and then you can pull the head up and pull stuffing out.) Well I'll try more tomorrow=] I have class at 8 in the morning.

BAH.

Frogged the star. I didn't like the fact that the holes kept shifting despite the fact that my rows were all properly counted. BAH. And so it goes.
I will make a second attempt tomorrow whilst I wait for my man to come over (he works late and lives an hour away so i'll need to wait up) =]

YARRRRRN!

I bought a bunch of yarn today and some poly fill so i can make a few amigurumi. =]
I also purchased a full selection of crochet hooks and a couple knitting needles. I'm going to make some roll up cases to hold onto them OR i'm going to make this excellent bucket organizer I saw on craftster. I need to go work on a painting for my Painting class (duh) now so I wont get to do any crocheting. And tomorrow I know we're doing a review for an art history midterm that is on tuesday (therefore I will be a study slave for the next weekend and wont get to work on fun things.

Afghan!

So i started my first ever crochet project.
Beth's Little star afghan

I figure its a great first project because it deals with following a kinda difficult pattern for the first 3 rows and then gets easy (so if i mess it all up i only have 3 rows of work to tear out =])
I have some trouble counting stitches and figuring out which one i'm supposed to pick up next. but since this is just a sample i'm not really focusing hard hard on what's right and wrong; i'm just using it to learn as i go. I don't want to get discouraged by having to rip it out.

It's all curlyyyy



Anonymous yarn from kit, hook size 6.00 mm (j)

I hope it comes out decent haha despite the crunchy acrylic yarn.
