No-Sew Repurposed T-shirt Tote

Yesterday on Twitter, I got a tweet from Heather Mann @dollarcraft about a pattern for a No-Sew t-shirt tote.  I was very enthused about making one, since I have a LOT of extra t-shirts that could be used for other things.  When I finally got home last night for good, I took a shirt that used to be my daughter's and made one.

It even has a pocket in front, if I choose to use it, and is a perfect size for my latest crochet project.

I found some more yarn at Big Lots that I fell in love with.  Luckily I noticed that the colors were already mixed, otherwise, I would have missed a couple of the skeins that went together.  The colors of red orange, orange, yellow, green and a blue grey were all blended together, and made the yarn self-striping.  I now have about four hat and scarf sets to wear, since I keep finding yarn I like!





Pretty Pink

This is the sweater I finished last night.  It is a size 2.  I will either give it to a friend's daughter, or donate it to the local Clothes Closet charity for kids whose families can't afford new clothes.

New Blog Title

I have changed my blog title to one that I think this blog is about.  It comes from all my passions: crocheting, writing poems and acting, and my musical interests.  I tell my husband those are my avocations, meaning I don't get paid for them. I think that if I did get paid for them, I might not enjoy them as much, and it would become a chore.  Crocheting and writing are very therapeutic and relaxing for me.
