One last day of peace...

There is only one last day of peace and then the children are loose. Tomorrow at 1:00 pm they are free and I am full-time Mom. I bet this really makes me drop a stitch or two...

Last night in a fit of mania I completed a baby blanket for my neighbor Candace. Candace is expecting a boy in about four weeks. I finished this one early - what a shock! The pattern is of my own making, but ... The stitch and all is so simple that I am sure I reinvented the wheel. I do not feel too bad since I invented my wheel after only 6 months of crocheting.

I will have to post pictures later. My camera's battery is dead and will not resurrect. I will get a new battery tomorrow and hopefully figure out how to show off my work.

Well, I have had a weird dream...

actually more than a few over the last 6 - 10 months. I have dreamed that I was supposed to learn crochet. No, I don't mean that I might like it or something... I dreamed that God wanted me to learn to crochet. I have no vagueness about this at all.

Thus I learned to crochet in February, I started with some sample stitch swatches that became dish rags - after three I moved on. I made a hat for each of my kids and my husband. I then moved on to an afghan for my sweet hubby. A scarf for Paul and shawls for my daughters and myself.

Last week I discovered interwoven crochet. It makes the most wonderful fabric. Now I am trying to make a summer sweater. I wonder where it will all lead me?
