Crochet Hats I have Sold

Often I am asked if I ever sold hats. These are some of the hats that I sold around 2006. I love making hats and wanted to turn it in to a business. Unfortunately there were more expenses than profit. I was selling on Ebay and Etsy which both have fees. Hats are only worth as much as a person is willing to spend. In the end, I was giving the hats away and paying the middle man what little profit I may have earned.

Leaning Crochet Stitches and Squares - Crochet Tip #60

Have you noticed that the stitches in some squares may lean more than others? In this example, the stitches have a slight lean but it is not real noticeable. This is because the rounds of the square are worked in the same direction. Think about when you crochet a row of stitches when working a blanket. At each end you turn. The stitches will have a different look with crochet rows. To solve the stitch lean, you will turn on each round. This will produce more uniform stitches, that should stand taller and reduce the stitch lean.

How to Crochet from a Chart - Tapestry Crochet

The following videos are two examples of crochet from a chart. I do refer to this as tapestry crochet based on the definition of a tapestry. Picture images on a heavy cloth. You will not crochet over the strand of yarn with these examples. The yarn is picked up the from the previous row by using yarn bobbins to keep it in place. I do have a crochet blog with many chart patterns. http://painted-crochet.blogspot.com/

O clima de São Paulo enlouqueceu!

Tem 43 dias que chove por aqui, ininterruptamente e olha que não é chuvinha boba não, é tempestade mesmo - raios trovões, céu carregado, resultando em terríveis inundações, desmoronamentos, afogamentos em ruas, avenidas, bueiros, rios.......
E quando chega a noite, um calor insuportável ( agora 24 graus à 1 da manhã - meu ventilador de teto me pediu um ventilador só pra ele.

Ô povo, vê se aprende, lugar de lixo é no lixo e lugar de árvore é plantadinha no seu habitat natural.
PelamordeDEUS, chega de sujeira e desmatamentos gente,  ou não chegaremos nem em 2012!
