Welcome to Leonardo's Rib!

The title of this blog is acknowledgment of Leonardo DaVinci, one of the most significant figures of the Renaissance period. Today the term Renaissance man refers to anyone who is knowledgeable about many different things. I could not possibly choose just one area on which to express myself so I am taking the route of the Renaissance soul and sharing much about many things.

Sorry, It's Been Awhile

I decided I would try to make at least one craft item a day; however, I somehow managed to pick things that took more time. On top of that I've been trying to write an article a day to put up on a future site. Add to that mix more pain than I could handle due to a fall. Well, you can see why I've been missing a week or two.
So, today I have hats I crocheted. I love to make hats and am going to try to get one sewn soon. When I was a kid I could wear any hat handed to me and look really good. Not so much now that I'm 50 but that's what happens with age.
The hats I crocheted are slouchy berets. This one is a very simple tam that is simply one basic stitch throughout. It sits on the head much like the popular slouchy hats you see on television these days. I'm selling these hats for $20 and I can make any color you might want. Just email, or message me, with details. There's no extra cost for specially made hats.
This one is a pattern I found on the site www.allfreecrochet.com. I love the flower  It is currently listed on www.listia.com for free. There is a small shipping fee.
Over this past week I also managed to finish decorating my kitchen. I will try to get those photos up soon.

In the meantime, I'm headed back to the sewing machine for a couple of hours, then back to the computer to write. I do like being busy though. The months of recovery from my back injury made me stir crazy.
