This new to me but I'm attempting some of Ms. Ventura's free projects before I decide if it's something I want to do. I started today working on the pencil holder and so far so good. The only thing that I don't like is the yarns twist and keeping my tension TIGHT; other than that it seems to be a simple process. Thomas will you be sharing you're techniques of graphing, I would love to be able to make my own patterns.

I have use this techique to create crochet versions of several pictures including baseball team logos, the MLB logo, and the University of Texas Longhorn. I have become obsessed, so It is nice to know that it has a name. I create the patterns by graphing them out on excel. It rocks! Apparently I have been creating tapestry crochet for quite a while.

Being a Parental caregiver to my Mother doens't give me a lot of time for much, but doing these patterns have really helped the stress.

After reading the tapestry crochet post on whipup a few weeks ago, I’ve been wanting to try it, so I added a zig-zag border around the bottom, to match the ‘M’ markings on Maui’s forehead. I finished the bottom with reverse single crochet.: [...] [...] I crocheted the cat hat in single crochet from black chenille with cream chenille accents.
