A couple of years ago, my grandmother and I went yo-yo crazy. My 'Mimi' is very competitive, and she would actually call me late in the evenings to tell me how many yo-yos she had just finished and check on my progress. We never finished them into anything until a few months ago. Mimi, who has always been into crochet,
began making doilies with the yo-yos. I really like them. She likes to mix all the colors together, so I sorted the combinations I liked into plastic baggies for her!Michele
LOL, yo yo making competitions with your grandmother sound such fun.
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely memories to keep always.
The doiley's look wonderful.
Yo yo making is right back in fashion again :)

Yo yo's are such fun to make. How cool to have handmade goodies from your grandmother.

What a neat idea to finish off the yo-yos. Seeing yours brings back memories of the ones that my mother loved to make.
