Learn to Crochet

Posted in Crochet, tagged , , on September 1, 2017| Leave a Comment »

Crocheting is a terrific hobby to develop.  I learned as a young child from my grandmother who was patient enough to teach a curious young girl.  And I’m glad she was because I have made hundreds of items over the years.  It is something I can do for a few minutes in between other things or I can sit for hours and crochet.  That is the beauty of it.  You can pick it up and put it down without any  preparation or clean-up.  And you can take most of it anywhere to do.  Stick it in a bag and crochet while in a waiting room or on a long car ride.  I LOVE IT!  If it’s time for you to learn then be sure to come to The Studio later this month and get in on the fun. We will learn to make an infinity scarf.  Click here  for more information and to register.

Yesterday was my day off.  And  what did I do?  I spent the day crocheting…working on stitches and patterns that we can use for classes at The Studio.  Yes, that is working and not a day off….but it’s fun work.  🙂   I think we have some new things that people might like to learn to do so they can get ready for fall and winter.  Keep an eye out for upcoming Crochet Classes.
