This crochet{ing} thing can be addicting. I have been keeping my hands busy for sure. It is the perfect thing to do while helping Jacob practice the piano each afternoon, while hanging out at basketball practice for 2 hours, while waiting for dinner to finish cooking and I have 5 minutes to spare, or even while watching a movie with the fam.
It really is a fun thing to do~ AND my girls have benefited greatly. They love their head wraps just as much as I do. The choice is what color they {& I} will be wearing that day. Wether or not they want one big flower or a bunch of flowers. A straight band or a big & chunky. Scalloped edges or straight. Thick or thin. So many creative options.
These are the hats I made for my nieces and nephew for Christmas. It was hard to give these babies away BUT they were made with pure love for the ones I love.
So . . . go on . . . what are you waiting for? Go pick yourself up a roll of yarn and a hook for under 5 bucks and give it a try. If my eight year old Achievement Day girls can learn . . . so can you. You won't regret it. I promise.

You and Jen are MANIAC'S! [insert Maniac song here]
Maybe next winter I will get on the crocheting bandwagon [and they will prob. be out of style by then!]

PS. Are you still p90x-ing it up?
I love knitting and crocheting. I just had to put my needles away this winter because there have been too many other things I am interested in right now. Now you are making me wish that I had been working on something. Those all turned out so great!!! I LOVE, love, love them. Did you get your wrap patterns online, or did you buy them? I would love to know your source. I am glad I have a girl now because girl things are much cuter and more fun.
Sorry that last post was me, not Brandon.
They all turned out so cute. Oh the addiction.
Save on shipping, when you send Ginnie one, throw one in there for me too. It will be loved and used:)
Ummmm....what don't you do?:)
You definately have talent! Love all of them!!!
Sarah, these are adorable. I don't know how you find the time. Where did you find the pattern for these? I would like to give it a try. I think Zoe would love one...and me too!
Maureen
