Mostly Square Things

Hello there! Welcome to my other little corner of the internet. This blog is gonna be about all my other things not related to cooking. I decided I needed somewhere to put things about my life, and crochet. We are a Navy family so I have a lot of "Hurry up and wait" time on my hands.  I originally learned to crochet from a friend's grandmother when I was 11. Saturdays in between dance classes she sat with me in the family waiting area and taught me to crochet mostly square things with a double crochet in the back loops only. When we lived in Maryland I had a decent amount of free time. When we received orders to be stationed in North Carolina, and while my hubby was in training for two months I realized I hadn't crocheted anything in a few years let alone during all my free time back in Maryland. For years I only made baby blankets and scarves, and they were plain just with one or two skeins of yarn. So once I stumbled upon a few awesome Youtube tutorials I decided I should learn some new stitches and patterns to add to my skills. Ravelry.com is my current obsession, and in a few months I have become a crocheting machine. We got our tax return back in the beginning of February, and decided to split a portion of it. Hubby bought video games and what did I spend it on? Yarn of course :) (That would be lovely title picture at the top of this page).
