I was looking through a sewing magazine the other day and decided a concept I saw there seriously needed to be translated into crochet ... so I went shopping in my yarn stash and found 8 balls of Plymouth Yarn Sundae Swirl, a cotton/nylon combo. I grabbed my "L" Graydog crochet hook, used one of my favorite stitches, and within two days it was finished. I'm calling it, "Summer Sunday Envelope," and plan on wearing it at the Conference next month. I did not write the pattern down as while I was working on it ...
... I received a phone call from a yarn manufacturer ... with a designing assignment! UPS has delivered the yarn and now I must get to work with swatches until I come up with the right stitch combos I have pictured in my mind. I have a tight deadline. And they want the pattern developed in 4 sizes ...

This means while this is an exciting opportunity for me, I need to go "MIA" for a short bit. If you would like to be a Guest Blogger, please email me your post about your favorite crochet "Ah Ha!/eureka" moment. Off to go design...

Beautiful! And congratulations on a very cool assignment!
WOW this is beautiful, would you think about sharing this pattern with us?? And congratulations on that assignment, how exiting!
Congrats on the assignment!! Can't wait to see it! Love the wrap. Just bought some new yarn at my LYS today that wants to be a wrap. Will try to help out with guest blogging - let's see if I can type a decent blog entry with one hand :o)!!
