Scrumming

 Or Freeform crochet.  March was crochet month.  Over on ravelry I participated in this crochet along.  Each day in March a different set of instructions were given by different 'designers'.  I was March 27th designer.   I had everyone crochet grannysquares in remembrance or honour of their grannies/nans.  My finished ....erm....thing is this.  Here it is in all its glory.  Lots of new and interesting techniques and stitches here.  I know, its kind of odd, but some people make great things out of freeform crochet.  Check out Prudence Mapstone.  She is the queen of freeform crochet.  I think I may hang this in my imaginary studio.  My plan is to hang one of these each year that I participate in the freeform along.  I suspect it will look interesting when I have several of them done.  Oh, and someday, I'll have that studio too.

National Crochet Month




I'm not sure which nation is having this, but over on Ravelry we are playing a little freeform game. We are given a random number generator (ie dice, cards, telephone number) to determine the number of stitches worked, and we are given the stitch. Its the first time doing this type of freeform or scrumbling. I rather enjoy it. Though my 'thingy' isn't a thing of beauty it sure is interesting.

By the way, my camera has broken again. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr! I'm getting angry now. I think I'll demand a replacement this time.
