CALLING ALL HOOKERS!

Do you crochet? Yes? Than make a square. Why? To create a blanket. Why? That will be sold. For? Orphans and relief effort in Japan. All the money? Yes, 100% of proceeds go towards the cause. Click the image to get more info and rules. Do it. Now. Obey!
Sidenote: This is for crochet. In Japanese, the word for crochet and knit are the same word, “knit”. Got it? Okay you should be crocheting now.

That eyebrow is slightly intimidating.
HOOKER AT WORK: Art Couch

This hooker does not mess around. If you read the story page of this site, this is the project I was referring to. In H-Town, Tejas we have a little, big, awesome thing called The Art Car Parade (google it’s amazingness at your leisure). IKEA (no need to link to them, they probably take a large portion of your income every year via five dollar increments) did a project called Art Couch and your’s truly was priviledged to be apart of the event. My project was a focus on fungi (ha, ha). I admit though, my crochet skills are so, so. I am all over that magic ring stuff, but still learning different stitches (bought a new book this past weekend, what?! what?!) but for someone who learned on YouTube, I’m not doing that bad. The thing about me is if I am taking on a challenge, it’s on. That and I have constant hardcore crafting obsessions that blossom and overflow all over the apartment. More is more.
Hook on, homies, hook on,

It was awesome to get this picola of Aberrant Crochet’s (the lovely Julia Chambers) daughter’s hat. Word on the street is she stole the button from mom and, for me, solidifying Julia’s Cool Mom status (don’t tell her daughter) because there is nothing of my mom’s I ever wanted to nab except money for the movies. Click the image above to link to her site where she, yes, crochets for charity and other crafty goodness.
Be like Julia! Send me your photos people!

I wish I could go au naturale. If you come over though, no wearing black around you and please do not sit on the couch. Damn, Fuzzy Yarn if you weren’t so cute.
10&11/30: Teamo Ultimo & The Chunky Yarn Mirage

30 drawings every day for 30 days
Saturday? Saturday the only communication I had to the outside world was in person and via a phone. I know? How the hell did I survive? I brilliantly locked myself out of the apartment at 8:30a and did not get back in until 6p. I was soooooo awesome. You should have been there, I was all “bleep, bleep, bleeeeep, mother bleep, son of a bleep, what the bleep! I hate life.” Therefore, I took money I did not have and got yarn via this plastic card that helps you pay for things now and then makes you pay more for it later. Hells, yeah!
So here are Saturday’s and Sunday’s doodles. Have a good rest of the weekend. Don’t lock yourselves out of anywhere because if you didn’t know, it sucks. For real.
Hook + Fuzzy Yarn + Lint Roller = Ain’t no stoppin us now!
Chunky yarn don’t mind.
