Are your apples freezing too? Just crochet them a cape

there you are, innocently clicking your way through the internet, browsing around looking for new ideas and stuff,
and then you discover crochet ideas for the summer that you might possibly want to make sometime.
of course I clicked on it right away
obviously,
and then this
Apples in capes
Details about it are here

and here are the rest of the crochet ideas for the summer

is there a logical reason for this apple thing?
that somehow everyone knows except me?
are they easier to carry around that way or something?
or is it just a great crochet project for beginners?
I mean, I think it’s a doable project for a beginner
that you don’t spend an excessive amount of time on, and you can learn to crochet with it pretty well
but well, it’s about as useful as constantly crocheting potholders. Although, well, at least you can use potholders, even if they’re crooked.
The apple coat, well, not so much. Maybe that’s where the saying “cloak of silence” comes from? ; )


what’s your crochet project for the summer, anyway?
do you have anything special planned?

That’s weird

I find the apple thing a bit strange. I don’t have a set summer project. Besides a bag and a triangular shawl, I’m fiddling around with little bits and pieces. :)
