Why would someone want to crochet a face? My answer: why not? I've discovered it's quite fun! No pattern. Just letting the hook and the yarn work it's magic.
This face is for a future project my local CGOA Chapter has been challenged with. I haven't officially measured it, but I'm going to guess it's about 2 1/2" long. As time goes by I'll reveal more information about the project.
I crocheted this face to represent me ... back in my "curly hair" days, when I wore HUGE hoop earrings, wearing (kinda) a baseball cap. I'm always wearing sunglasses when I'm out & about, so adding those was a must! LOL (I'm currently using this image as my avatar on Ravelry.)
I hope to crochet some more faces. Perhaps of my children too.
If you were to crochet a face, would you try to create one that resembles you, or would you go and create a whole new being?

That's a really cute idea. I'll have to try that challenge at a crochet meeting sometime. Cute face!
I would probably do a face that resembles me, but in the aspect of how I want to be seen. Make sense?
This is a cool idea! What does MiniDee think of it?
Love and hugs,

Great idea Dee!
My kids love the idea. In fact Mini~Dee has gotten in on the action, crocheting up some of her own faces. Watch for her next blog post as I'm sure she'll want to share a photo of her creations too.
