Crocheting Up a Storm..

>>  Wednesday, January 26, 2011

Picture this:

The yarn flying, my crochet needle clicking.

I've been crocheting up a storm.


Some may remember the story behind the pattern for this blanket.

This is actually my first attempt at the ripple pattern. Intended to be gifted to my husband, and excited about what it was about to become, I gifted it to him for Christmas. At the time, it was barely big enough to serve as a scarf. It's been 10 years since that Christmas.....but I finally finished it.

Not knowing what to do with myself once the blanket was finished {despite my ever growing stack of books -on every end table and nighstand}, I decided I needed a scarf. Something to keep me warm on our next adventure.


*I've been under a lot of stress lately, and I've discovered that crocheting it therapeutic. I get to counting stitches and by the time I come up for air, whatever it was that was bothering me....well, it's often times melted away.
