Well, I have been called worse. I am not only addicted to thrift, but crochet as well. I am of course a hack, but have learned to follow a simple pattern. I am extemely proud of myself for that accomplisment too. I started knitting years ago and fell in love and was...yes...completley addicted to it as well. But, it took me years to get the patience to follow a pattern. Crochet for some reason seems a little less daunting.
Pinterest has made it super easy to find other fun blogs and crafters and patterns to keep any die hard crafter busy for eternity. I found the following tutorials on there, and I guess you could say...I'm hooked.
One of the tutorials is for hearts...you can find the pattern at Attic24. She is simply amazing, and apparently has a black belt in crochet. Her hearts look a lot more like hearts than mine...but I still adore them. Apparently I need more practice following a pattern.
And then I found this tutorial below for the cutest coasters on earth at Yvestown Blog. Super easy, and quick...I loves it.
Me likey. And while I can't make as much money with this kind of hooking...it is much safer...and doesn't require as much hard labor.
If you're a true G you can however make a quality living selling the Flavor Flav knit clock. Found at HipHopKnitShop on flickr. Or go see her Etsy store.
While I'm at it, I must show my absolute favorite Hooker of all time.
