So, it's late and I'm too tired to be witty.
I'm crocheting again, not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.
But what I do know for sure is that, when I'm done, I'll have the coolest grandfather clock on the block.
Hahaha.
On the clock block.
On the clock block.
Thanks to a book by Anne Halliday "Decorating With Crochet" published in the 1970's, I have become inspired to clutter my walls with this awesome crochet clock.
Had to teach myself jacquard (tapestry) crochet which, apparently, is crocheting by looking at a chart/image instead of reading a pattern and requires the use of many, many, many color changes... It's been fun... and tedious... so far.
I have the clock base done. That's about a quarter of the way through. Wooot! I gotta say that making this has turned out to be the best decision I've ever made... Clockwise. Bahahaha.

My hands are raised and I'm bowing down to you!!! Anyone that even considers crocheting a clock deserves respect and applause!!! Love you, Aunt Cathy
