Crochet "Chat"

[speckledhen]

Hey, I figured out the pom pom yarn! Here is a bed made with the blue chenille yarn coupled with a white acrylic and using the pom pom yarn as edging.

Cool you even left a few dangly.

I figured the cat could bat those around and really, that's where I had to attach the next piece so they just sort of happened-the first part of that ball of yarn was in pieces so I untangled three of those and used them for the edging. Where two pieces came together, one or two pom poms didn't get integrated into the edge. It was what I was going to do, what I envisioned, but sort of just happened in the course of adding that row anyway.The story of my life, LOL. Speaking of, Friday is our 39th anniversary. Saturday, we're going to attempt to go to Golden Corral for the breakfast buffet, about an hour away from us, and Hobby Lobby is right across the street; though I truly don't need to go there now-I shopped Walmart's With Love yarn sale on Thanksgiving as well as one of the last JoAnn sales online, plus, of course, this new bunch I was given. When the heck can I get back to my quilting? It's so much easier to just crochet, less technical, easier on hands and eyes.

I made a hat out of that stuff before- I'll find a picture. I had 2 balls I bought on clearance for $2, and I loved the bright colors LOL

If she hadn't given it to me, I'd probably never bought any to try. Just not my usual thing. But, it's cute on the bed, I think.

It's adorable on the bed! Perfect for cats lol.

Here's the hat...(yes I made my dog one too lol)

ETA- forgot the pic. I blacked it out for privacy reasons

Looks like a head full of fruit loops!

That was the first thing that came to my mind, LOL. I know, I'm weird. I never buy any of the specialty yarns, but the pom pom yarn was very easy to use. It ought to make a very warm hat, I'd think.

 

[Malibu99]

It really does LOL

I usually don't either, but for some reason I decided I needed it... It is a warm hat though! I was a bit intimidated by it at first lol

Well, if it's free, I'll try it, LOL. Maybe this will be a gateway yarn, opening the door for all sorts of weirdness!

I completed 5 beds to take out of the yarn Karen at the HS gave me and will drop them off today. Now, I have to buckle down and finish my quilt projects, dang it!
