What Shall We Examine Today?!

 (My Little Treasures (Limited Print) by BeiLeXian)

     Even though I don't have anything to write about for you to examine, or have anything particular that I want to examine myself today, I did wanna stop by and share a couple of things with you. And no, they're not black scarves!! ^_^ I still haven't started those scarves!.....Uhhhh...don't ask!!

       Let's just chalk it up to the fact that I have a 'virtual' trip to pack for tonight...or maybe I still need a nap...or...uhhhh...that I started a couple of other crochet projects instead. ^_^ {As you can no doubt tell, I'm not excited about crocheting four plain black scarves!! Ugh!}

      I think I'm having a creative block about all of that 'plain' black! :-)) I mean, if it was 'black and white'......

      ...then I'm sure I'd be able to get into it! ^_^ Maybe I'll have to make some white flower brooches to go with them or something....We'll see! ^_^ But suffice it to say that if you could see my brain waves on some sort of machine when you sit black yarn in front of me, you might actually think I was dead!! LOL 

      I'm not dead though! And I can prove it! My brain cells lit up perfectly fine when I saw this (below)!! ^_^ ...

      Of course if I owned this I'd be putting crochet hooks in it! :-) My numerous bunch of knitting needles wouldn't even fit into this bundle. It's waaaaay too small! O_O Crazy, right?!...I Never knit anymore, and yet I have tons more knitting needles and knitting paraphernalia than I do crochet stuff! LOL

     ANYWAY! ^_^ Before I go off to finish my packing...{NOTE TO SELF: Carry a light sweater AND some sandals. It's gonna be around 62 degrees where we're headed, but 82% humidity!}...let me show you the project I'm working on now, and the one I finished this morning! :-) ...

      Yep! It's a pink scarf! ^_^ In fact, with all of the pink yarn around here, I've decided that pink items HAVE TO BE MADE!!! LOL Pink scarves, pink hats, pink flower brooches, pink slippers, and maybe even pink baby blankets! :-) And no worries, I have PLENTY of pink yarn to make all of this stuff with!! In fact, I just found three drawers in the house full of nothing but different brands of pink yarn!!!!! O_O What was I thinking?!...And why wasn't I thinking 'BLACK'?! LOL

      This is what I finished this morning! :-] ...
 

      It's another hooded scarf/cowl/wrap!...
 

      You'll have to forgive shequita's bald head in the above photos! LOL Just remember her with her head covered...like it was the other day when I took this photo (below) after I made the other black scarf/cowl/wrap! ^_^ ...

      I only wish I had models like the shop owner whose pattern I bought!! These are her great photos!!...

      The plain black looks pretty good all crocheted up like this, doesn't it?! ^_^ 

      It's such a great pattern that even bald heads can't make it look bad! ^_^ ...

      Although Shequita could use some shoulders and a better neckline!! LOL

      Okay...I'm off! :-) Have a good 'virtual' date night, weekend, or rest of the day, Y'all!! ♥

Another 'Virtual' Trip!

Another long trip abroad.
We're some 'virtual' traveling fools!
We revel in our 'virtual' jaunts,
but don't have to follow travel rules.

Our shoes stay on our feet.
In fact, sometimes we go without!
And what is all this measuring
and getting searched about?!

Yes, we travel everywhere,
and we never spend a dime.
It's 'virtual' perfection.
You should try it too sometime!
