It's been raining all morning here in South Alabama. What I really wanted to do was lay back down after I dropped the kids off at school and take a nap, but I couldn't do it. I wanted to be productive today.
Over the weekend, I started thinking about some presents I can crochet for Christmas. I know I should have started something earlier, but I haven't. I got into my yarn and realized what a horrible mess it was. With a little help from my youngest daughter, I rolled a bunch of it up. Am I the only one who can hardly crochet unless I have rolled my yarn into balls? No matter what end I start it, it always gets tangled up and makes me so mad!
Anyway, this morning I decided I had too much yarn to go and get some more so I started a blanket. I think I'm going to use the yarn that I have and just do a big double crochet blanket with all different mismatching colors and textures. I've never done one like that, always have perfectly matched colors. I have seen several people do all the different colors and I just love the look, so here I go! Hopefully I can get it done by doing as much as I can in the mornings after I drop off the kids and before work. I will let you know how it goes, hopefully soon because I need to get started on those Christmas presents!
Have a great week ya'll!

Sounds like a lovely way to spend some time. Enjoy your crocheting!
ReplyDeleteI love all things crocheted! My mom is very good at it, but she did not pass her skills on to me! :)
