Crochet Along with Maybe Matilda!


I'm going to do a whole project! Not finishing projects is my kryptonite (that and grad school and having a job), plus no one I regularly come into contact with crochets so I don't do it as much unless I need a winter hat/scarf combo. This shall change this year, hopefully, starting in a few weeks.

Why? Because I'm doing Maybe Matilda's crochet along! The idea is that a whole bunch of Internet-dwelling crafters are going to make the same project during the same timeline, and then post pictures at the end. There are prizes and such, but mostly I like the project that we're going to do. I went to Hobby Lobby and picked out my yarn already because I'm that excited- Yarn Bee's sherpa blend 103- "Serenity", which apparently does not exist on the Internet. So I took a picture so you can see the pretty colors:

The best part (other than finding yarn at all) is that these were in the clearance bin, so I only paid $8 for all three!

I'll have more updates on this once the crochet along starts!

  1. $8 for all that yarn?! Dang, what a great find! I'm so glad you're participating--I bet your cowl will look beautiful in the yarn you chose. I'm excited to see it!

  2. Yeah! The clearance bin is sometimes the best thing in the whole store! :)

  3. They must have discontinued this type of yarn. I have been searching for "Tibetian View, but no luck. ;^(
