TCAL with Kim

Today I joined the Crochet Along that will start on July 1,2013. Getting excited! I did one last November when we made Tunisian Cabled Mitts. They were a lot of fun! I made quite a few to give as Christmas gifts. Really worked up fast, it was an easy take along project. My favorite pair were in pink (which I kept for myself... I JUST LOVE PINK!)

Here's the TCAL group that I joined:

I purchased my yarn, dug out my Denise Crochet Hooks and now I'm (im)patiently waiting for my book to arrive from Amazon!

Getting Crafty at Work

Crocheting in the Women's Locker Room

Is it crochet or "Locker Hooking"?

My commute to/from work is 55 minutes each way. On the way to work is daylight; on the way home it's close to midnight. I get plenty of crafty time when it isn't my week to drive. Daylight is for crochet, patchwork or embroidery. Night time is for catching up on YouTube via my cellphone.

 

This week, I'm working on an afghan for my nephew. The afghan is a sampler of different stitches- with single crochet in blue denim color being the main stitch.

Crafting in public offers a chance to let others view a special side of yourself. Instead of seeing a stressed coworker, they see a calm, relaxed and cheerful person. It also offers a chance to teach your craft!
