Slippers and Scarves and Hats…

I can’t tell you how hard it was not to add “Oh my” to the end of the title, and if you added it in your mind then I am certain that you, too, grew up in the age of “The Wizard of Oz” . Of course now days I suppose I could put “OM” at least 90% of you would know what it meant. LOL

All that is beside the point. I really just wanted to show you the crochet projects that I have recently completed. After putting so much time into crocheting the tablecloth last year, I have found that it has become a habit each time I sit down in my recliner to reach for a crochet project.

These slippers are some of my favorites. My husband and I each have a pair to wear around the house in the winter and I always like to have an extra pair or two made up, just in case.

These two infinity scarves are done in a “broomstick lace” stitch. I love the way it looks and it is also a fun stitch to work.

I’m planning on taking these Easter or Spring hats to a spring craft sale to see if I can sell them, except the green one since my sister told me that her Granddaughter, Ava,  (my great niece) “needs” this one.

 Now, ♫ I’m off the see my crochet hook ♪ ♪ (to the tune of The Wonderful Wizard of OZ)

  1. Beautiful job, and yes, I too added “oh my” to the end of your title. I love the broomstick lace! That’s one stitch I haven’t yet tried, and I’ve been crocheting for almost 10 years! Looks like I’ll need to get on that. Lol

    1. When I wanted to learn the broomstick lace my husband happened to have an spare handle for a broom or mop in the shed. When I told him what I needed he cut it off for me. I understand you can also use a large diameter knitting needle. I do love the look of it especially when it is done with a variegated yarn.

  2. I am so blessed that you crochet beautiful things for us. I wear my slippers all of the time and my scarf is definitely my favourite. I was trying to figure out a way to add a pic to the comments of Ava in her Easter hat from last year, but I don’t think it will let me. Anyway thank you for sharing your special talent with us. Love you ❣❣❣

      1. Both of those movies take me back to my childhood. They would come on the TV once a year. When they came on the whole family would gather around the TV, usually with popcorn to eat, and watch them.

      2. They are Ruth, aren’t they? We do have dvds here at home but we still watch them on the tv when they are on. Beautiful classic stories.
