I love to crochet. It is so facinating to me that you can turn a long string of yarn or thread into fabric so easily. Yarn is also one of my favorite thing is the world. The never ending sea of colors, textures and types of fiber just makes me happy.
I combine my love of crochet with my love of pugs to make all different kinds of pug art with fiber. Above is a pug tape measure I made by the pool in Jamaica. I was surprised the interest it created that day. I sold two as soon as I finished them, and below are pug finger puppets and dolls I have made over the years.
The creativity that abounds inspires me to buy lots of patterns to try new things. I recently made a baby hat, booties and knitted a hat for my friend Laura and her beautiful daughter, Shelby. She was so sweet to share pictures of them wearing the finished pieces.

Wow, you can draw and crochet! Those are pretty neat hat and booties . . . do you ever knit anything for Emmitt?
My parents agree with you about the poodles in dog shows -- what is up with those stupid hair cuts they subject them to?
How cute. Mom can knit, but she never tried crocheting. She saw a book with instructions just the other day, so she might give it a whirl. When she has time.

I LOVE that baby hat. You are so cool. Also, the Parrot is cute - well, it is ALL cute, but those are favorites. I can't knit OR crochet. It makes me want to break things. Believe it or not.
