I don't crochet much. Mostly simple things, like scarves or an occasional afghan. Last week I decided to try my hand at a baby blanket for our soon-to-be granddaughter. I wanted to make it simple because I didn't feel like counting stitches. I bought this soft baby yarn and am about halfway done with the blanket. It's a quick project. I just made a chain of 115 stitches and did an easy double crochet across each row. There are some awesome tutorials on how to crochet on the internet if you're interested. I love how it's turning out -- not too heavy with kind of a lacy feel. I'll probably add a scalloped border around the edge.
I'm looking forward to getting back to creating some new projects in a few weeks, but it's felt good to be more involved in serving my family. Sometimes it's a good to remember that there are things much more important than sewing, painting, or Mod Podge. Ya know?
