Under Color Crochet

      Aw! This makes me so happy: my dearest cousin, Cathy, opening boxes from me. 😍 I sent a few small boxes of my simple stuff, just the usual colorful creations that I love making. And I love it even more when those creative crochet pieces go to a good home. 😎 Free-To-Good-Home could be the title of this blog, instead of Under Color Crochet. 😁 Because all of my crochet items are donated to friends, family, and organizations that can best make use of them.

Now that I think about it, I need to get those two fabulously creative gals together.   😎 To see the whole playlist of videos, go here: U...

Yes, it's been three years since the last time I posted about this love of mine: Colorful Leftovers . So, this makes it a regular routine now. 😎 So many fun projects in these bags and bins, so much love and color. 😍 All those crochet items, long gone now, but never forgotten. Free to good homes. And so many more on the way.  I love making scrappy poms (above)! I don't like them tight and fluffy, but you can easily trim these and make them that way. I prefer this loose and floppy look, because it reminds me of a cute cartoon character, or an adorable sea creature. Maybe a hybrid combination of cartoons, creatures, and characters. 😄 Here's a whole folder with pictures of how cute these colorful critters look, plus several shots of the easy process to make one: Scruffy Poms Anot...
