Hello all! I am once again attempting to write a blog. i have many floating out in cyberspace...mostly with 2 entries or less. Now, however, I feel I have finally found something to blog about! I finally have a hobby! Yay!
I entered the world of crochet as a way to stop smoking (it hasn't cured that thus far...but it helps). It took a while to get into it, but now I am hooked (pun very much intended)! I am still terrified of knitting (two needles instead on one....ooooooo.....props to those who can knit). After making many, many scarfs...I finally taught myself the granny square. Oh boy...I am happy I did!
My newest project is my biggest project to date. I am attempting to make a granny square throw. Since I can't read patterns yet, I am doing this by feel. This going to be a major task, since i don't have long to complete it as it is a Chrsitmas gift for my aunt.
The color pallet is actaully my favorite: orange and brown. I have one really big square made right now. All of the squares will have a yellow center. Some will be made with a light rust color, to a terracotta color to burgandy; the others will have a toffee, to chocolate to espresso pallet. The goal is to have 2 big squares in the orange color regiem surrounded by the brown, with a border in the orange. I am really excited to get started with this! It looks good in my head...I just hope it translates! It is my goal to post pictures of the progress!
Happy hooking!
