Crochet Project #66 or something like that...

OH! I forgot to post my first real crochet project. Its a hat that I made for my friend's new baby, Emma. Scary Gnome is wearing it in this pic, but it has already been delivered to the precious baby girl.

Crochet Project 2 and 3

Skull or it could be Michael Meyers
(of Halloween fame?? maybe)

So I'm not wanting to make a scarf just yet. I know it will take me a whole year so I'm playing around with easy projects that come out of my head. they don't look put together nicely, but thats ok. :P

Dead Gnome or Shit-Face Drunk Gnome

I love gnomes. and gnomes can be found in any situations. here I started out making him to be a sleeping gnome sitting on his bum, but I couldn't get the pants right so, I just threw him on a pillow and took a picture... thus making him a "finished" project called... well, read above. :P

First Crochet Project

I can't knit. I've tried. I just can't get started on the second row. I can cast on like nothing else, but when it comes to working two needles and making the yarn stay in place... its impossible. I just cannot do it. period.

But, have no fear... I can crochet.

When I was a kid, my aunt taught me how to crochet a string... dang, I should know what its called, huh? oh well, the beginning string/line/whatever was all I could do back then. but now, with the help of an internet tutorial, I can do something.

Here is my first little project.

Actually, its not my first project. I started on a cellphone holder, but somewhere along the line, it got all curvy. I think I tightened the stitches too much. So I put that aside and began this one.

Its a pacman ghost. Its not what I set out to do. But then I didn't really have anything in mind. I didn't even have a pattern to follow. I just wanted to sink my teeth into something and this is what I came up with. I think its cute.

What do you think?

Well?
