Yesterday I was digging through my childhood memory box and found a little vest that my mom made for me when I was about 5 years old, and I was amazed to see how well my mom crocheted, it's too bad she's not here anymore to give me some tips!
Anyways, the little vest was my inspiration for this shrug:

Today I grabbed all my photo albums to see if I could find a picture of me wearing the vest, but unfortunately I didn't find any, but some other day I will take a picture of the actual piece to show it to you guys.I made this with Lion Brand cotton ease (color Taupe, even though I consider this cocoa brown), because it's a blend of acrylic and cotton, nice and soft - perfect for Spring/Summer.
Gee, your mannequin has a nice figure! I love this shrug and I will patiently wait your photograph of the vest your mom made. I'm glad you still have it too!

ReplyDeleteInterestingly enough, when I was making this scarf I thought of you and that reddish/pink scarf of yours with the pretty ribbons! Thanks for the tip. :-)
ReplyDeleteI saw this online yesterday and thought of you. Looks like something you would make: http://www.joyfulabode.com/blog/2007/06/29/beaded-choker/
