Recommended Posts

I was looking for a great barefoot sandal pattern but couldn't find any I went ga-ga over so I just did my own. Really simple, not fru fru or glitzy.

Next is a super find...I know some of you probably have this book but I gotta say I heart it very much! I found it at half-price books for $8.00, I rarely pay that for a very used book. It's McCalls Crochet Treasury this printing was for 1977.

I love this skirt in the outfit...granted I'd never wear it but I think I'm gonna make it just because!

I had that book but lost it in the move somehow. My grandma's friend gave it to her. It has some neat stuff, that is back in fashion now. How funny. I like your barefoot sandal, too. Did you write up a pattern?
