Crocheting
I have been busy trying to finish two blankets. I have a granny square blanket that I am making and I usually bring that with me to tae kwon do. It's going to be 30 (or 36) individual squares that I will whipstitch together. The other blanket is just made by double crocheting row after row until I am happy with the length. It's gonna be huge! Of course, these are going to be Christmas gifts (I hope) so I have to keep working at them. The big blanket - I try to complete 2 rows a night. I don't even know how many stitches are in one row. I should measure it - lol. In fact, I have to buy more yarn for it. Luckily, it's a part of a no dye lot (Lion Brand homespun) and the Rag Shop has them on sale this week 2/$7.00. They also have 1lb skeins of yarn 2/$7.00 as well. Hmm - just what I need - more damn yarn!

Hmmm....I should have sent the yarn I just found in my craft closet to you! Some nice stuff. I ended up giving it to my neighbor for her to take to church.

I cannot crochet to save my life. I admire people who do though. My mom just made a beautiful blanket for me in a gorgeous pineapple pattern. I'm just an x-stitcher!
