QUOTE OF THE NOW

"Our life evokes our character. You find out more about yourself as you go on. That's why it's good to be able to put yourself in situations that will evoke your higher nature rather than your lower. 'Lead us not into temptation.'" Joseph Campbell

A bird on a ball: A story of crochet

I'm trying very hard to finish crochet or sewing projects, and not just have a bunch of started ones. (See yesterday's drunken cat.) Here's something that started as a hat, and trying out a more difficult kind of yarn. But I thought it was ugly, so I made it into an egg shape. And months later it has ended as a football bird, to sit on my dad's desk.

Good use of yarn that football bird.

I like that you kept going and going, figuring out what it was as you went. It's a very cute football bird!

Thanks! Stepmommy suggested adding eyes, but I said he's creepier this way.
