There are times when you can just sing! It doesn't matter if you cannot hold a tune because of tone deafness -- you're just given this one-time-ability to sing -- with joy, that is.
Today is my day. (I'm so happy, happy, happy!! I love treats & surprises! LOL)
Look at what I got in the mail!! Susan, a member of the online Freeform group, who lives in Illinois and attended the CGOA Conference, sent me this little gem with a challenge to "try it." She says it's "Braided copperwire [that] acts very much like yarn." Oh, I love challenges!!
Where she got this, I don't know, but you know I'm going to ask!!
The hook you see pictured with it, is actually an upcoming prize for my Crochet Club's 3rd Anniversary. It's a collectors hook that was made for the SouthWest Ohio Chapter of the CGOA by www.celticswan.com -- If you're interested, they may have more ... visit the Chapter at SouthwestOhioCrochetGuild.com to inquire. I used the hook to give the copperwire a bit of dimension. Isn't it pretty?
I wouldn't dare think of trying the copperwire on the Celtic Swan hook because, one, it's not mine (--yet! I could win it!); and two, the copperwire, although soft, could scratch the hook up.
Now, what to create with that copperwire ...
any suggestions? J
