Learn to Crochet

Happy Sunday, everyone!  As you all know, I love to knit.  However, this is a relatively new crafting passion of mine.  I picked it up about 10 years ago.  Before then, I was a crocheter through and through.

I learned to crochet when I was in 4-H and LOVED it.  Crocheting was my yarn-crafting activity.  I have made many afghans.  However, since I've been knitting, I haven't crocheted, so my crochet skills are a bit out of practice.  Thanks to One Dog Woof, I have the perfect opportunity to get out my crochet hook.

Now, if you don't crochet and are a bit intimidated, don't be.  ChiWei of One Dog Woof is hosting a CAL (Crochet A Long) and look what we'll be making.


Isn't this infinity cowl gorgeous?  This past week she posted about the yarn you will need along with a few tutorials for the stitch techniques we will be using.  I'm super pumped.

So, why don't you join me?  I think it would be fun for us to all crochet this little number.  I think the hardest part will be to choose what color yarn to use, don't you?

I hate to admit this, but I actually have a book checked out of the library right now, and the title is "Knit & Crochet for Dummies." I'm determined to learn one or the other....not picky. :-)
