Why crochet?
A couple of months ago I went through a very difficult phase in my life. I was very nervous and anxious and needed to find something to keep my mind off my personal problems. I discovered my passion for crochet.
Crocheting is therapeutic. It's calming, you can let your mind wander off while your hands are busy. You can make all kinds of cute things.
I started with the classic potholders and baby blankets, then I made little hats and scarfs. After receiving some really nice compliments about my work (bless my mom *lol*) I became more adventurous - the next step was baby and childrens' clothing. I give most of it to charity, I found a nice group of women who knit and crochet things for orphanages, hospitals, shelters and so on.
I want to use this journal now for my crochet-related ramblings :) Of course I still fangirl, you can find me on tumblr!
