I can't believe I'm actually doing this! I've wanted to post for so long and just haven't done it! I don't know if it's possible to catch up, but I'll try. Let's start from the beginning.
My Grandma Leslie has been crocheting afghans for as long as I can remember. I have tried to learn before, but have not wanted it enough to keep it up. Well, this summer I was at their house a lot. Mom told me I should learn and I did! I made an American girl doll afghan! You can crochet so many things! I know how to make afghans, washcloths, toy snakes, hot pads and I could learn so much more! I have a book from the library, but I was hungry for more so Mom ordered a crocheting teddy bears book that I was so excited about, but it turned out to be just patterns and I couldn't understand it. She ordered a kit that comes with more yarn and a book that will definitely work. I can't wait for it to come! Anyway, I've made so many things and Amy has already asked for as many washcloths as I can make. I made a snake for Ruby for her birthday. I don't know how she liked it, but I thought it looked cool. I love crocheting. I can make so many things by just learning one stitch and then it's easy to learn more! I can take it anywhere. I just need a hook and yarn and I'm good to go. Sewing is awesome, but you have to have the machine (hand sewing is just too much work). So, there you have it. I can crochet!
