At the beginning of 2015, I set my goal to learn how to cable. I watched many a YouTube video, read blogs and looked at instructions. While it did not look overly complicated, I had yet to find the right project for it. I have finally accomplished the task and used cabling to complete a project.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day! To help my daughter be pinch proof today, I made her a headband. I began with a free shamrock pattern I found on the To Live A Life blog. It is basically three hearts that were sewn together.

Since St. Patrick’s day is Thursday, and I wanted to practice my newly learned crochet skills, I whipped up a tiny shamrock.

I recently took a crochet class. I have never been able to master crocheting, even though I tried several times.
I finally did it. I was able to complete this scarf after one class. The pattern can be found on Ravelry. This Textured Easy Scarf uses both double and single crochet. I used an entire skein of Red Heart yarn to complete.
While I think I will continue to focus on knitting, it is nice to have another skill in my repertoire for when I find a project I love that uses crocheting.
