Crochet WIPs
I've been crocheting, and the more I crochet, the more I like to crochet. I'm feeling more confident with my (still limited) skills. Now I know where the end of a row is, and how to count the stitches. I know I'd rather dc or sc than hdc. I'm just past the mid-point of two projects at the moment: a top and a pillow. 
("Icelandic Turtleneck" from Crochet Me, but without the full turtleneck -- in fingering-weight Jojoland 100% wool) 
("Knotty Pillows" from Crochet Today -- in Bernat Satin and Red Heart Soft Touch acrylics)

Nice choice of patterns! Can't wait to see the FO's.
both patterns are quite wonderful. i should learn to crochet just so i can make that pillow!!
I heart both projects and have them on my MUST crochet list...but like in different colours.
I clicked on the link for the wood pillows, but I don't see which issue it's from...want want want! Those are SO cool!
Whoops, duh...it's on the home page, latest issue. :-) I am brainless...
Love the application of crochet to create wood grain. Very nice work!
mmm ... i'm wondering if I would not just stop the top here ... looks like the perfect thing between the sweater and the capelet to me !
I just love the pillow! Very clever! I congratulate you on expanding your crafty skills!
Gah! I was just sitting her smugly, mocking the knit-bloggers-crocheting trend and smirking that NOTHING could ever convince me to crochet. And then you posted that pillow. Thanks a lot.
Your pillow looks great. I must admit, I bought the most recent issue of Crochet Today just for this project.
the pillow is incredible!! i love it, dude.
wow, I love both of these. The pillows are so freaking clever! I have one crochet cardi in my Rav queue - I haven't worked up the courage yet, but I'm going to one day.
I still love the turtleneck top, but I am valiantly resisting buying the book! I really should finish the crochet projects I have first!
Crochet is awesome! I just wish there were more good patterns!
I love the log pillow and the sweater!
Keep up the good work!

ha! i love HDC. i did a whole scarf in it once :) these are both coming along so quick! that's another thing about crochet. it's fast!
Wow -- now I wish I knew how to crochet...
That ALMOST makes me want to learn to crochet!
Fun pillows! I haven't crocheted in forever, I will need to get on that :)
Hmm... Here I can see the beginning of that lovely pillow.
