My Crochet Journey So Far

I learned to crochet when I was 16. My Great Grandmother was living with us at the time. She was a prolific crocheter. I had broken up with a boyfriend and was moping around the house. My Grandmother couldn't stand it so she sat me down and taught me how to crochet. She taught me how to crochet the granny square and let me tell you that that was the HUGEST granny square afghan that anyone has ever made! I just kept going and going and going! I slowly branched out from making afghans to making sweaters and other things. I don't intend to post patterns because these are not my original designs. I just thought it would be fun to have some sort of record of what I have made and who it went to.

Baby Blanket-January 2012



I made this for my new little great niece Lily. She is due in March. Can't wait to see her!  I thought the little booties turned out cute too, but they will be way too big! They probably wouldn't have been so big if I hadn't combined both the pink and ivory.

    Don't worry about them being big! She can wear them over top of socks! It's winter and it'll be perfect! Also, she'll be able to wear them longer!
    GORGEOUS baby blanket! Wow! TOOOO beautiful!
    GREAT job!
