Introducing the Swamp Crone Shawl!
Here it is draped about this blog's spokesmodel...
Crocheted using this acrylic-y stuff and honeycomb stitch, Swamp Crone worked up quickly. I even fringed the edges and I'm not normally a fringer, at least, not in the yarn sense. But hey, one does what one must for one's craft.
Up close and personal with the ghoulish accoutrements...
An eyeball...
Detached digit...
And a good ole brown spidey!
Oh, and all self-respecting Swamp Crones never leave their respective shacks upon stilts without a trusty Eyeball of Infinite Wisdom...
Ahhh, I love Halloween!

I love Halloween, too! Nice swamp shawl! (not a compliment I give everyone.) ;)
How can something be so disgusting and beautiful. It must be a Regina Original. Arts has never been more fun. Thank You!
This wonderful piece of work calls to mind one of my favorite ever songs...."Swamp Witch" by Jim Stafford

I just knew this would be the place to come to view Halloween-ness at its finest. Creepily excellent shawl, dahling.
You are so very very cool! Cool doesn't seem like enough of an adjective... but I'm stymied for a better one.
that yarn is absolutely the perfect choice for an old crone like you! I was wondering what you would do with your extra pieces/parts, and boy did you!!!
I should become innured to my level of amazement at your work, but it just aint happenin.
You are sooooo twisted!!! What a cool shawl. You are the "ghoulest" crochet artist of all time! Have a spooky Halloween!
Woo Hoo! Scary Shawl! ;) Happy Halloween!
Ooooh - I can just imagine the feel of that foamy stuff. Very creepy!

Oh how awesome! I so wanted to have some fingers done by Halloween. Oh well, every day can be Halloween. So I'll just do it when I can.
