Michael's or what I'm calling 'den of yarniquity...'

Aug 20, 2013 23:46

Because I want to buy all the yarn. Over a year ago I tried my hand at crocheting..got flustered...threw my hook and yarn across the room and vowed to try again. Tried again and came out with a placenta-looking thing....enlisted the help of my sister when she came over for Sunday dinner and actually made a halfway decent hat.

My sister also had a point when she said that I'd need something huge to keep yarn in because crocheting is addictive. She wasn't lying. She's also thrilled because she has someone to teach (and I didn't know my sister was such an excellent teacher!! Wish I'd accosted her ages ago) and she won't be the only one the family teases for toting around a huge bag with her yarn, half-finished projects and her hooks.

Plus a lot of my internet lovelies are quite helpful and have been giving me tips and the like. If not for them I might have said the hell with it. teddyradiator and sabrebabe so graciously let me bother them, while Toblass suggested that I'm going to turn into a yarn hoarder.

Yes! And I have no shame.


First horrid attempt. I dismantled a weird yarn-blob monster three times that day.
