Hi Ericka.  Good to hear from you again.  It sure is hard to do much when it’s hot.  Glad you’re getting the hang of dish cloths.

You’re in Southern Wisconsin. It’s been a little too hot to do much of anything. I’ve been making dish cloths, which are finally turning out pretty decent most of the time now which is a big hurrah. We haven’t had much rain yet, so it really hasn’t cooled off all month.

 

Congratulations on your beach hat! I’m still lurking around, just not really having time to do much else. Hope everybody’s doing well. And hello to the dogs here. I have a guide dog I get to walk and hang out with once in a while. His name is Lumière like The candlestick and beauty and the beast.

It’s Successful Saturday!  Have you started or finished a project, or achieved a goal?  Share it with us and we’ll celebrate with you. 

 

I finished the sun hat I was crocheting.  It came out nice.  It’s made of a soft grey-blue ribbon yarn.  It’s like a sombrero, with a wide brim.  The brim is stiff enough that it doesn’t flop.  It has some fancy crossed stitches to give it a bit of pizzazz.  Thanks ReNae for explaining how to make the crosses when I wasn’t sure about the instructions.  

 I haven’t had a chance to try it out yet in action, but I think it will shade my face well.

It’s called Beachside Sun Hat, and it’s on Ravelry and Lion Brand.

Tracy
