Hers some of my wifes crochet things. A few she won ribbons at the long island fair, others she made as gifts for family/ friends.

Here is the display board of the ribbon winners.

A blue baby boy sweater

A purple baby girl dress

A bear blanket ( if it were spread out, the head would be at the top center, and all the corners of the blanket would have bear paws.

A bunny baby blanket

She cant cook, but she can sure crochet.

Im not sure if this falls under the craft category, but ive always wanted to build a boat. Last year for fathers day I got myself a canoe building kit. When completed, wasnt the prettiest thing, but it actually floated

This winter/ spring I may make a kayak.

Very nice LS!

WOW... those are awesome... give the Mrs. a thumbs up for me!

Suzi... I LOVE the spider and candy corn... that is way to cool!

 

[texasgirl]

LS, tell your wife how awesome she is!! That is not an easy task. I got into knitting and it is fun, but, time consuming and if you miss one row, it messes up everything. It's the same with crochet. Does she sell her stuff??

 

[larry_stewart]

She has been told that she should sell it by friends and family, and has considered it. But, she enjoys it so much , that she doesnt want to turn a hobby in to a job with deadlines, complaining people and all that fun stuff. So for now, its a hobby to make things for us, and baby gifts for others. Our family is rather large, so there is always a baby that needs a gift here. I love hearing her curse when she misses a stitch and has to pull out a whole row, but shhhhhh, dont tell her.
