    This is a little crochet swirl. You might have seen me using it in this project. And since I gave you a pinky swear promising I’d show you how it’s done, here it is. But before I start, I’d just like to let you know that I am no crochet guru. Not by a long shot. I am kind of a psychotic, hysterical, constant trial and error experiencing person who, despite that all, loves her yarns and her hook. Which in short means that I

    Easy crafts: felt haircessories how to Felt anyone? I have a superabundance of felt.  I'm not sure how I acquired so much, but I think I may have to make every single craft till Christmas that I have left out of felt just to put a dent in my supply.  I was sitting in the middle of my felt pile the other night pondering felt and my sixth craft till Christmas - haircessories (another one of my made up words combining hair and accessories).  And

Then I slowly glued them down.
