Where NOT to Crochet
September 19, 2011 at 8:52 am Leave a comment
I find that I am constantly asking myself – is it okay to crochet here or there? I love to sneak in a few stitches while on the go. There are only two places that I won’t break out my yarn and hook, Sunday Mass and work. I am afraid that I will get swept up into the stitches or the pattern. With that said, though, I have come to realize that I am much better – I think clearer and am more focused – after I have crocheted. Even a few minutes does wonders for me. When I am stressed, I crochet. When I am angry or upset, I crochet. When I need a moment to find myself or just want to relax, I crochet. When I am feeling creative, I crochet. Simply put, I would crochet 12 hours a day, if I could.
Well, the good news is that for the next several days I will be at a place where crochet is not only tolerated, it is celebrated. I am headed to the Chain Link conference in Greensboro, NC, and there will be no need to ask if it is okay to crochet there. I am so excited and I thought I would give everyone a sneak peek at some of the “yarn goodness” I am packing in my bag for the nearly five days of nothing but crochet.
Of course, I will be sure to report back once I return home. I can’t wait to see the fashion show and design competition winners - not to mention the fact that I am going to be rubbing elbows with my crochet idols. I also have some wonderful classes and seminars on my itinerary. Stay tuned and if you are there, I’ll be the one in the midst of a non-stop crochet binge!
