intothedawn's other interests

Before polymer clay took over my world, I loved to do thread crochet. I never did much with yarn, I was a "threadie" all the way, I loved making doilies, especially with floral designs.

Floral Egg Doily


I also made dozens of Victorian x-mas tree ornaments for myself, family & friends:

Mauve Victorian teardrop ornament


If I ever did work with yarn, it was usually because I found an amigurumi pattern I just had to try:

Porcupine of Love


I still have lots of crochet projects I'd love to complete, but what can I say? Polymer clay has turned my head!
