Crochet Blankets

            In the last week I've gone and fucked up my sleep schedule AGAIN! Ghhaaaa I'm such an idiot. So tonight I'm staying up as late as I can(probably 3-4am) and then get up early, well early for me anyways(perhaps 10am) I've been going to bed at 4am and not waking up until 1pm, not good. That is how my natural sleep schedule works, but unfortunately that's not the time the rest of the world runs on.
             So here I am, alone, binge watching the X files and crocheting baby hats, while my husband sleeps peacefully in the other room, well actually he's probably talking in his sleep and fighting dream monsters like a fucking tool. Gawl sleep much? Anywho I thought since I'm bored af, I'd put some blankets I've made on here for no reason.



This one is a C2C blanket I made with some discontinued baby yarn(I think it's from Bernat) it's very pretty in person, pink and blue with a metallic bit laced through it. I made it for a friend who had a little baby girl.



This one I made for my niece when she was six, just basic DC all the way through. It's made entirely with dollar tree yarn. It cost me under $15 to make and two years later she still has it, and even shares it with the cat.




This one I am exceptionally proud of. It's called the morning light baby blanket, and it's from allfreecrochet.com . I  found the yarn(Bernat baby sport) at the Salvation Army. I basically ran home and jumped on pintrest like the giant nerd that I am, I went looking for a pattern.  I picked this pattern because it looked easy, hahahahahaha oh boy was I wrong. It took me 6 months to finish the blanket. It only took about half an hour to make the bonnet, I didn't use a pattern for the bonnet and have no memory of how I made it, it's pretty cute though.


Well that's it for now, that's all I got. I'm gonna go be bored now and finish another hat, plus I got the last season 6 episode of X files to watch, it's not gonna watch itself. Plus I got 30 inches of hair to comb through, and that's just my ass hair.

Crocheting in heaven or hell?

Okay I know I said that I live in the midde of Canadian nowhere, but apparently there are nowherier places than nowhere. About a month ago Ryan got called to work out of town in a tiny little butthole town called Fort.Saint James. It's still in B.C., but it's much farther north. When he went up, I went to stay with my mom, I do better business where she lives anyways, but after a month I missed Ryan so bad I couldn't stand it anymore. I had to see him, I also really needed to get laid ;) so I booked a 15 hour red eye bus up, and here and  I am in a dingey, low end motel, in a town that I'm not allowed to walk around in by myself. I'm exhausted, there was too many weirdos on the bus for me to relax, I slept only about 2 hours(with one eye opened) and once I got off the bus in prince George, Ryan picked me up, and it was another 2 hour drive to Fort.Saint James. I know it sounds awful, but tbh I've been here for two days and I'm really enjoying the alone time,

Crochet Chunky Men's Hat

About a month ago I made myself and my husband matching hats, I got some new Bernat Chunky yarn and wanted to play with it because I'm a giant dork. So hats it was, we needed some anyways. It doesn't get as cold here as most of the rest of Canada, maybe -8 c at the absolute lowest and only at night, still nice to have winter hats though. Well my husband(Ryan) is obsessed with his, he never takes it off. It's already worn down and looks a million years old because he wears it at work all day. But in all fairness, he looks a million years old to so..... The originals  Today Ryan came home and said his boss has been bugging him for a hat like his, and since I'm FUCKING AMAZING I obliged. I wanted to return some of the blue softee chunky yarn I had bought the day before anyways because it turns out I hate it, oops. So I went and exchanged it for grey(the only good mens colour they had) and got straight to work. I absolutely love this hat, it only takes abou

Crochet one skein baby blanket and hat

One skein  This baby blanket is the perfect gift to make for new or soon to be parents, and here's why you guys. 1. It's fucking adorable 2. It only takes one skein of Bernat Chunky yarn so it's inexpensive  3. It's super soft and squishy 4. It's really warm so it'll shut that screaming baby's cry hole so mom and dad can actually get some damn rest 5. It's works up super fast. I actually had no intention of making this blanket, or anything for that matter, on the weekend that I created it. I was at my moms house being the perfect daughter, not swearing or being inappropriate at all I swear. No for real I swear, I was just sitting there quietly with my hands in my lap(okay fiiiiine, I was being an asshole) but you can't blame me, I was bored. Anyways Ryan had come home a couple days earlier with this yarn because he's awesome and does nice things like that. So I played with the yarn for a bit until it decided to tell me what
