Crochet

I love to crochet!! I love to make things for people and honestly, for myself. I tend to make either things for my kids or purses for me. I also love to make hats and scarves. (which are really handy since I moved from Florida to snow!) I hate the cliche of a little old lady crocheting doilies (though I have made some of those, too). I am a young crocheter and I like to make things that I can use. If I have a need, I try to find a way to make something to fill that need. Water bottle holder, a band to hold toy arrows, bags and bookmarks are all on the list. Right now, I am making a blanket for my son and knitting finger puppets for my he and his little sister.

There is so much time that can be wasted just watching TV or talking. I like to take crochet along and work on something while I am talking to family or watching a movie. (as long as it isn't one I've never seen, then I need to see it more to know what is going on.) I think this stems from being fidgety. I wiggle a lot and crochet gives my hands something to do.
