Cotton Candy Baby Set
I love crocheting! I don’t know if you all know that but it’s true. I get caught up at times or as DH says obsessed with crocheting. I crochet with recycled plastic bags, vcr video and cassette tapes, and I crochet with t-shirts cut into yarn and I crochet with yarn. I’ll crochet with just about any material I can get my hands on. Anyway with that being said, I’ll share some of my latest crocheting.
I present my cotton candy baby set. The material looks like spun cotton candy as I used a strand of pink worst weight yarn along with a white fingering yarn held together when I crocheted these items. I followed my cuffed baby booties crochet pattern to make the booties. The hat is just a basic beanie and I added my scalloped crocheted edging to the hat to finish it off.
I just love these booties and the crochet pattern is free. So check out the link above for the pattern if you’d like to crochet a pair of these baby booties.
Enjoy and happy crocheting to everyone!

Hi Cindy:
You and I exchanged an email back in 2007 or 2008 right before your diagnosis. I think I asked you a question about linking to your website because I also recycle. You answered me and afterwards, I did not return to your blog until several months later when you had announced your diagnosis. I felt so bad that I couldn’t even respond with another email! I guess I was shocked. After that, I started working a 9 to 5 job, decided to go back to night school for another degree and rarely had time to get on the computer unless it was for work or homework. I was laid off the job in 2010, completed the degree this past May and now I have plenty of time to search the internet again. I’m still creating recycled bags from second hand clothing but haven’t sold any of it yet. Since I’m not working a 9 to 5 right now, I’m taking advantage of catching up. I’m glad you are now doing fine and are cancer free. My sister in law was diagnosed with breast cancer in July and so far so good but now I really understand that you just can’t take your health for granted. I’m grateful everyday for my health and that of my husband and family. I pray the same for you and my sister in law. Take care and I’ll be in touch. Promise. Lamar

@Lamar — I’m so glad to hear from you and that you have reconnected to my blog. I’m doing well and am trying to enjoy life each and every minute. Life is short and you just never know about cancer and other such challenges we may face. I hope the best for your sister in law. Thank you so much for leaving your message.
