Wanted: Lost my Mojo

[Anaisa]

I ran out of thread, so was designing charts; checking out sites and taking apart old UFO's and testing out stitches, ....got a coupon, went to a couple of Micheal's and finally got some more thread and I just stared at my project....I just couldn't get started...I was having trouble w/ the Russian join and just started and stared at my project....sighs....I even carried my old thread project w/ me so I could get motivated...nofin; so here I am trying to get my mojo again....sighs...OK lemme get to...doing somefin.....LOL Happy Crocheting.

I saw somethin in a pattern of the russian join or knot do you have an example?

[Anaisa]

Yeah, I have the link...just wasn't working for me....thanks.

I love, love, love the Russian Join! Every since I learned it I do not tie knots! When I explained it to my husband (because I was so excited about learning something knew) he said oh yes, I use that all the time with rope. Burst my bubble in a hurry. I thought I was going to teach him something. Not so much.

You just made me learn something new!!! I had never heard of the russian join, so I looked it up, I cannot believe how easy it is! Thank you !!!!

Sometimes you need a break. I find if nothing is tripping my trigger, it's time to do something else. I make more mistakes if I'm not really into it. I'm lucky I have a lot of other interests. Hey, I've got an idea! Go clean out your junk drawer! My problem is all my drawers are junk drawers! Caro

[Anaisa]

thanks Caro, just needed a break I guess because I keep adding to my charts...clean my junk draw? Heavens no! LOL love the advice.

I need a break every once in awhile too!! We just finished all our crocheting for Christmas presents, so we deserve it! I check out the web when I don't want to crochet!!

[Anaisa]
