Hairpin Lace and Broomstick Lace!!

It pays to go snooping around my mother’s house. You never know what treasures you might find. I found an old Hairpin Crochet loom and a pair of size 35 knitting needles – now I don’t have to buy anything to do them! Hehe, I feel so clever today. Anyway, this is the stuff I made to learn how to do it – well, mostly anyway, I still have to figure out how to attach hairpin Lace strips, but that will come when I have time. X-mas 2008 projects have already started, which means Mom and I will be in planning stages next Tuesday.

Camera and Battery Pouch
This is what I made today. It’s a pouch for my camera with a slot for extra batteries. Now I just put it in my purse and not have to carry the camera bag with me. And if I am lucky, the hubby will keep his paws off my camera now that he has his own.
I used a size I crochet hook, Caron Simply Soft in Lemonade and Limelight – one strand of each, and then I just kind of worked my rows and rounds until it fit the camera the way I wanted it to. Then I did the same thing for two AA batteries. I think it came out pretty cute. I work some more on my scarf tomorrow. The hat, Scarf and glove set I am making for me will probably be something I won’t ware until next fall, but it will be one less thing I have to make this summer, so go me!
