Pleased

I'm very pleased with myself. I managed to create a crochet toy item from a picture. I designed it, planned it out, and created it while writing down the pattern as I went. I feel that it marks an important stage for me. It means I know enough about my craft to be able to visualize the stitch type and quantity I would need to use to accomplish the desired effect. I made a toy water bottle, for anyone that was interested to know. I think it turned out rather well and I may add the item to a set I'm planning to offer in my shop. This particular 'prototype' already has a purpose and home.
