2020 has been a difficult year for most of us. So as the new year approaches I want to wish each and every one of you a Healthy, Prosperous, Happy New Year!
It has been a few years since I posted on this blog. I also have not been doing much crocheting. I found myself sitting with a hook in hand, and the day has gone by without notice, so many times since the passing of my husband in 2015.
This December the creative juices are beginning to rise again and I have made a few patterns.
Here for your delight is an older one I want to revisit; a really cute cap, I hope you like it.
