Crochet

tension turned beauty.

I used to suck my thumb, as a child, and gently tug at or sniff my favorite blanket.  It was a green, yellow, and white crocheted lovey, made by my grandmother before anyone could guess at my gender and prescribe a favored color. I carried it everywhere.

Over the years,

Your end product is so pretty and even! You could always make boleros or the never-ending Tom Baker scarf. :-)

Knitting and crocheting are something I've always wanted to learn, but haven't because I keep losing count. Even with those circle/hoops/counters. I just keep looping and looping and looping. And of course, the tightness/eveness of the stitch, le sigh.

It is so great/nice to see your name, and thank you for calling it pretty. I'm going to try to make baby dresses this week. Wish me luck. <3
