Crochet With Textiles

After making far too many of the plant hangers, I still wasn't ready to give up on crocheting with reclaimed textiles. This woven cotton with indigo print was nice to work with.
I used it to crochet this sort of freeform pod.
It reminded me of some bells that I have that came from Africa.
So, I added some small brass bells to crocheted textile chains and the pod became a bell.
 
 Another one of my no reason or purpose creations.

    1. Thank you Marilyn! I just looked at this bell thing again and it made me giggle a little. I have no idea what I was thinking when I made it. Do you ever just make things without having a plan first?
