I am, really. Lately I have caught the crochet bug (better than the swine flue, yikes)
Been making hats for moi, a black one with creme trim with fun fur yarn

PINK one and a grey one (pics on Dutch blog)
Now started a cute blue cape, also for moi. The same yarn as the blue hat which I also made this afternoon. HOPE I have enough yarn left duh!!
Been looking on the net for hats and saw this cute pattern plus the cape, so thought why not make both
http://www.lionbrand.com/patterns/chs-cape.html?noImages=
Here is the link to the pattern plus picture of cape plus hat
Like I said, have caught the crochet bug.
My mind is occupied with brother etc  so thought to do something to keep my mind on other things

Crochet is good for taking your mind off things. Best wishes.

I so understand. I started crocheting socks for my niece back in March. Got sidetracked and when I went to start again (almost done one) I realized I totally goofed up so had to pull it all out. Now the socks will be for the boyfriend if I can get them done in time. Franctically working that, a scrapbook, and biology. I still want to make the slippers in the Aug issue for my grand niece. Not sure I'll make that. Need to start earlier in the year.
Good luck Dutchy

I bought a book on how to crochet socks. It works well if you don't goof. I'll try to write it up and post it today. Laurie

Suzan, I'll email you the pattern. It was three pages. You might also find one online.
