So tonight I needed a break, (my husband is on a vacation from school so our nap schedule is off, and when the nap schedule is off, Mommy gets slightly cranky.) Little Bear went to spend the evening with Grandma, Grandpa and his Aunty. And I sat and crocheted. Honestly. And I was pretty darn content doing so. Ok, so we did eat a quick dinner and watched a movie. Though I never really watch movies, unless I am at a theater, (I find they don't generally keep it bright enough for me to crochet...) My husband will stop and rewind when there is a part he thinks I should watch, otherwise I just look up from my work every once and a while.
Anyways, I have come to my least favorite part of any project. Weaving in the ends... it is so frustrating and time consuming! Most of the time my projects only require a couple ends to be woven in, like my hats or scarves. But I chose this beautiful pattern
from Lion Brand yarn for my Grandmother's birthday present. I chose it because the motif looks like a dogwood blossom and those flowers always remind me of my Grandfather who passed away in 2007.

Of course I used a different type of yarn and two different colors (such a rule breaker...) |
Ugh! Got to get going, time doesn't slow down for anyone, especially cross eyed crafters...
