Crocheting for Me

I've been so busy getting inventory done and orders made that I haven't crocheted anything for myself in quite a while. In the last two weeks, I have corrected that. It's so nice to be wearing something I've made again. It gives me a warm, pleased feeling.

I do not have a picture of the shrug I made for a particular dress and I will try to get one and post it soon. I do have a picture of each of the skirts I've made myself.

 This brown one has open work in it. At the office i wore brown leggings underneath it and they were actually quite attractive that way. Outside the office I wore shorts under it. It could also be used as a bathing suit coverup. 100% acrylic. Not my design and the pattern can be found here.

This skirt I made to match the shirt. I ran out of the original green yarn but had one almost identical had the house. It does appear lighter in this photo. It isn't, however, that noticeable in person. Go figure. It has very few open stitches in it but I do have a half slip on under it at the office. The skirt, my design, was made to wear with the shirt. 100 % cotton.

I'm happy enough with the results that I modeled for my blog! I don't generally model.
