Developing Idea....
Hi, yawl!!
These are some pics of a project I am developing. I have been practising crocheting with a very narrow ribbon I really like. It is 1/8 of an inch wide and it satin on both sides. I have ordered some thinner ribbon I found online, it is 1/16 of an inch. I am thinking the thinner will work out better. I have crocheted this, taken it apart, and recrocheted it. I am particular that way!!
It will be a cell phone case with a beaded draw string. The jewellery wire I have isn't doing what I want it to, so I will be ordering some stretchy cord. The possibilities for this are vast, I believe!!
The pics didn't quite turn out like I hoped they would. I will be working with lighter colors, those should be easier to see.

Happy Crocheting!!

Looks interesting. I like what I see of the texture. Show us when you use the narrower ribbon! Thans for sharing, Caro

Hi, Caro,
Thank you! The pictures don't do it justice I think, the black ribbon looks really elegant and it feels very soft. I am also anxious to see how the thinner ribbon will turn out. I think it will arrive on Wednesday according to the FedEx tracking dealie.
I appreciate your feedback!
Happy Crafting,
Landon

LOLOL @ kl1000 for the first reply, LOL
Thank you so much! Do they really look different? Wow, I wonder how I did that, LOL
What is your first name or how do you want to be addressed?
Happy Crafting,
Landon

Looking good, Landon! I've wanted to try using different fibers for crocheting, but there never seems to be a time when I can actually do it! I've been very busy with Craft Fairs and making stuff for my grands for Christmas-they are all getting sweaters this year! But I love your idea! Do let us mnow how the narrower ribbon works out!
