The Happy Hooker!

I've picked up a new hobby of crocheting and I must say that it's really rewarding!  I've made 3 infinity scarves so far since I find that to be the easiest thing to crochet.  You don't have to worry about counting your stitches.  I caught on pretty quickly and maybe that's because I had some great teachers to help me. =)  I really wanted to learn so I can make beanies for Gavin, but counting stitches was difficult so I learned that making an infinity scarf was easier.  Maybe once I get movin', I'll learn how to do beanies.

My next goal is to learn how to use my sewing machine that Greg bought me for my birthday.  I think I need a craft room.  Hopefully, we can get a bigger house so Greg can have his art studio, I'll have my craft room, and Gavin will have his nursery/play room.

Crochet makes time fly and is really therapeutic.  I found a new respect for people who use hooks and needles!  It's not easy and it also takes quite an imagination.
