Amigurumi are not that hard actually... I was scared to try for the longest time but when I did it turned out great. Well, I had some gauge problems, but I don't think anyone noticed that the two headed dog had different head sizes

I lost my project bag on the train and it had all my good crochet hooks

Boo to lost hooks!!  That stinks ~ So sorry to hear    I "loaned" out all of my hooks last year and only 3 were returned.  I know how much of an aggravation/downer it can be to see a great project and then remember that you no longer have the hook to make it with...  No fun.  Hope you get some new ones soon!

[Annchen]

Hopefully I can get them back... I was told to ask again at the lost luggage center in a week since it can take some time for stuff to end up there. And if not... I have other hooks somewhere, but probably just odd sizes...

Okay, silly question, but this is bugging me!  I was going through everyones pinterests, and on one of them saw "Sweetarts"  Who's is it???  I'de like to check and see if there is something on your board I can make you since I already went and bought you the candy....lol

p.s.  Done one large project for each of my claims...and nearly done a medium for each!  Hoping to send this weekend.

Once my oct goodies are received I will join, but I may have to limit myself to just one or two claims...I've got some big projects in the works

You don't have to have all your claims from the previous month received before you join the next month, as long as you're not late with them. Everyone is welcome to join any time they want to! If you want to join now but claim later, that's fine. It will give us more boards to search through on our eternal quest for making everything we can.

I am almost done my three claims - I have a bit of touching up with one, and am all done with one.  I am looking at one though, and not sure if I am happy with it or not, or should I start from scratch and redo it or not.

[AuntieKar]

Oh, I would, but I don't have a spot open :(waiting on a couple things to be received on another swap too....dang ATCs getting lost in transit!

[jexxican]

Wow you guys! Usually I have a hard time getting you guys excited and claiming, last month I even had to message a few on the 30th to remind them they needed to pin, but this month we have people trying to over claim! Wow! I just hope I'm updating it all right. If anyone sees any errors on the claims page please let me know.

Some recent thoughts on Pinterest: I am getting spoiled with the "Scroll to top" button that pops up. I keep looking for it on other websites and it's not there!
Also, I know before people were saying they wanted to Pin stuff that they were going to make for swaps but didn't want their partners to see the Pins... now they have "Secret Boards." I haven't made one yet but I'm thinking about for the Stocking swap. What do you guys think about this new feature?

[noushi]

The secret boards seem odd to me... Not sure what I'll do with them. The scroll to top is sooo nice though, definitely a great feature. I'm having lots of fun claiming this time around, and I just generally have more time to craft this month.
