Crochet experiment

I have been doing some more crocheting on my free time. Its relaxing and and doesn't require sewing or glue to create something. I'm having fun but I don't know how much longer I will do this. I mean, what good is the stuff I'm making? Its just for fun. I like the scarfs I made for the winter but you can only have so many of them.

Last week I learned a couple new stitches and learned to make circles. After I made the circles (which were sloppy by the way because I never got the hang of it) I didn't know what to do with them so I experimented......

and made these cute little fortune cookies from the crochet circles.

I also learned to slip stitch while learning to make circles.....

and made these neat little pillow hearts. I added some fragrant inside of them and now they are little sachets that smell like vanilla. I have one more started. I have just been trying to use up my left over yarn and then may put the needle down for a while. I don't want to turn into a crochet geek. Summer is around the corner and there will be more outdoorsy things on my mind.
