Sometimes when I’m feeling creative I want to do something other than paint. With all the snow around and not being able to go out much I picked up some yarn and a crochet hook and went to it.
These are yarn baskets with handles that I made this weekend. They happen to be stuffed with yarn just so you could get an idea of how they look and their size.
I love to crochet. And I forget how much I enjoy it until I pick up a crochet hook and go to work. My granny taught me how. When I was very young she would be working on something and I would beg to help. So she taught me how. I was way to young to grasp the total concept but I could chain, which is the foundation stitch for all crochet. And I could chain from here to the moon.
But it took me awhile before I could put it together and actually make something. I think I must have been around 11 or 12 when I really started making things.
I love trying something new. So this weekend with all the snow I had my opportunity. And here are the bags. And thanks Granny for helping me not be bored to death this weekend. I wish you were still here to see what I made. 🙂
Tomorrow, who knows???!!!
