Infinity...=....taking or lasting forever...
Been a while since I last posted.... what can I say..... Christmas holidays kept me busy, or maybe I had writers block, ummmm excuses excuses excuses.... whatever.... I am back trying again!!!! sooo......
Worked on a few crafts recently. Finished an afgan I began crocheting 20+ yrs ago:
This pattern is so simple = 1/2/3 you chain to create the width you want, then turn, chain 3, *single crochet in the 4th chain, double cochet in the next chain and triple crochet in the next chain ~ single crochet, double crochet, triple crochet...... Repeat from * ending the row with a triple crochet. Turn chain 3 and repeat from *. This one is 77"X52" perfect for snuggling under to watch TV or read. It began as a gift but since it took so long to finish I kept if for myself ( for fear the yarn may disinigrate from age!!!) This almost took me forever to finish but not sure it will last for infinity!
You simply stretch out the "yarn" cast on 6 (10) slide off all but the last caston and repeat to the end of the skein. 6 stitches create a longer scarf 10 shorter. (Instructions on back of skein label too) Adorable! You do not have to connect the ends & make it an "infinity" scarf .... that is just the way I prefer it. Tho a tassel or "flower" type decoration attached to each end would be pretty cute too!
Well, got things to do & places to go..... after I have a cuppa ... hope your day is swell and you have a moment to sit back and sip a sweet cup of tea too......

and I created a couple of infinity scarves . S-I-L TommieJean taught me how to create a "new" scarf ... Sashay... I connect the ends so they just keep going round & round......
It is a simple project, quick and cute! Will make really cute valentine gifts!
And then this infinity scarf I found on Pinterest!!!! Oh I love Pinterest!!!! I have currently have 27,380 pins & 209 Boards! I spend WAY TO MUCH TIME at this site!!! but look... I do have something to show for it :) LOL!

I used a smaller hook than recommended so mine is a little tighter than the example on pinterest.... but hey it works well..... we have had a **few cold days here in south Georgia & I was happy to have it all snuggled warm around my neck!
**very few cold days & today it is already(not even noon yet) 70degrees F- with an expected 79 for Sunday!!!Well, got things to do & places to go..... after I have a cuppa ... hope your day is swell and you have a moment to sit back and sip a sweet cup of tea too......
