Crochet Tulips
The last time I broke out the yarn was to make a piece to alleviate anxiety and weave a kind of protective symbol. And it was about a year ago, too. Hmm...
Anyway, I was feeling anxiety yesterday and needed something to do with my hands, so I started making these tulips. I wore the big green one as a ring today, but my favorite is the big white one (at the top). Today I tried making the pink and white ones, which I don't like as much as the brown and white/blue/green ones.
They also kind of look like barnacles to me. Which made me think of this amazing installation:

Love it! Maybe I should make a little underwater scene... (Not that I have anything else to do, oh wait, that anxiety is why I was making the tulips in the first place!)
Check out Crochet Coral Reef, the blog! It is neat!
