Erin's Red Birthday Bowl


Wow! Apparently I'm much further behind in my blogging than I realized! I crocheted this cute bowl for my BFF for her birthday in May. I've made a couple of these before, but I like this one the best. It's very delicate but quite sturdy, too, with the sugar/water solution I used to harden it. I also used a taller, narrower bowl than the others I made to mold it over which gives it a nicer shape. I never noticed the hearts that are made from the pattern, either. Fun! Just goes to show how you can look at something for a very long time and not really see it.

Holly, it seems, took to it right away and had to decorate with it immediately. (Sorry for stealing your photo, Erin!) I'm glad she likes it, too! Maybe I can bring her over to the crochet side. Bwaa ha ha...

And I (we!) love it!! I tried introducing Holly to crochet, but she just says it's too complicated for her and the knitting is easier. Henry, on the other hand, has been a little more interested in the crochet side of things than knitting! Go figure. Still not that interested, though. :(

Thank you again for my beautiful birthday present!!
