Pay It Forward Gift #1!

You remember these?


Well, I finished my project a little earlier than I had planned (probably because I did almost nothing today but crochet...), so I get to show you what I did with them!

Drumroll, please...

Tada!

It's a crocheted cookie checkers set, for my friend Mary and her family.  (She's got two girls and a third kid on the way.)  I love how it turned out, and I'm proud of myself for sticking with it even though it took longer than an evening to complete.  :)  I want to play it myself!  But, alas, I must ship it off to be enjoyed by the proper owner.  :)

  1. Clever! When I saw just the cookies I thought this was some strange kind of torture. :) Ooh! Although I may need to copy the cookie to add to Kate's crocheted tea & cookie set (shh! Don't tell - it's her b-day present:).

  2. I love this! I really should learn how to crochet. I see a lot of beautiful crochet projects online and I can only turn green with envy because I can not crochet to save my life. Thanks for visiting my blog! Coincidence... I'm friends with a couple whose names are Paul and Celeste too and when you left your comment, I thought it was them :)

  3. I visited your profile, Janelle, and another coincidence: my hubby's Filipino! Also, I learned how to crochet on youtube. tjw1963 has a lot of really good videos that walk you through it. :)
