[JoBug]

Happy Mothers day!! I made a sweater a bit ago, from Christina's Crochet heaven, the mystic bella,

http://www.christinascrochethaven.com/mystic_bella_plus_size_cardigan.htm

I had some Mary Maxim Chunky yarn in blue I made mine out of, well, I wore it to go see my son today (in prison) and he LOVED it, then we, me and hubby get back to town, went to the market to get lasagna, the local market sells GREAT homemade lasagna! You just take it home and heat it up! Well, a lady comes up to me and says, OH MY GOODNESS,WHERE DID YOU BUY THAT SWEATER?? I explained I made it, she was PETTING me, wierd, so now this is my FAVORITE piece of work, it was my FIRST wearable...we had a pic taken, but I look as tired as I was, and don't want to show the picture here, I look BAD< and would hate to do the sweater injustice by my personal look..lol...

so I felt sooo god about that, and MAYBE just MAYBE will make me another wearable!!!

HUGS

I'm so glad to hear someone recognized your talent......good for you!

[magiccrochetfan]

Congratulations on getting those compliments! That is a pretty pattern. I would also like to see the sweater you made, but I understand about not wanting to post a picture of yourself ...I feel that way too.

what a awesome experiance to have. I myself haven't been brave enough to attempt a wearable yet.

I would like to see the sweater you made, I bet it looks great.

Okay, Okay, I added a pic to the first post, NO laughing...lol...

the sweater is AWSOME and I HIGHLY reconed it for anyone to make, its a plus sized pattern.

Polaroids in a state pen..do NOT do justice to anyone or anything..

What a gorgeous sweater! It's just lovely I can understand why the woman in the store was touching it! It looks so soft...It's also quite flattering. Great job.

You do not look bad at all I'm so critical of myself too I can't stand taking pics.I always say who is that ugly fat chick that stepped in front of me when they snapped the pic
