Sorry I'm late...

But... HAPPY NEW YEAR to everyone!!!

Last year passed VERY quickly.  I stayed pretty busy - My son became a first grader, I stayed busy making crochet samples, testing patterns, teaching crochet, and working behind the Stitch Diva Studios.  I started this new year just as busy, and I hope this year will be as good as last year... or even better! :)

I'm ashamed to say, I still haven't posted all the photos of the projects I finished last year. :P
This is still just one of them, but I made more corsages to give to teachers with the candy I like to make in winter.

More Corsage
Pattern: Lion Brand "Crochet Rosettes / Flowers"
Yarn: Patons SWS
Hook: J/10/6mm

I love the colors of Patons SWS yarn.  I already had some skeins, but I just didn't know what to make with them before.  I was able to make 3 flowers out of 1 skein and each one of them looked slightly diffent, which I liked. :)
Just to avoid any confusion, the pictured 3 corsages above came from 3 different colors of the yarn.

Corsage

We recently went to a close friend's wedding reception at a country church.
We only had one day (Two days to be exact, but one day didn't count because it was Thanksgiving, and we were busy eating, etc. :D ) to prepare so I put together my outfit quickly. It ended up really plain and boring so I decided to whip up a corsage.

Corsage
Pattern: Lion Brand "Crochet Rosettes / Flowers"
Yarn: Patons SWS in Natural Navy
Hook: J/10/6mm

It took only about 30 minutes to make this corsage!
I sewed on 3 small black buttons in the center.

I have 2 more colors of this yarn, and I'm thinking about using them to make some more flowers. :)
