March Is National Crochet Month!

Does anyone have any crochet projects to share?  I found this free pattern for a crochet necklace - I was in a conference call one day and made a test one (shhh, don't tell!) - it was in a yarn color I would NEVER wear around my neck, I just wanted to see how long it would take me to do the chain part.  But I'm planning a trip to Vegas this summer with some mommy friends, and I really want to make this for one of our nights out.  I do wish the pattern author had included instructions for the flower, but I'll figure something out for that.

Here's what it looks like on the original blog post:

I'm thinking about using black cotton, and making a colorful flower, using a large pretty bead instead of a button.
