Learning new things always puts a spring in my step. Getting a chance to practice that new thing does the same. I’m on the road for work for a couple for a couple of days and someone else is driving, which means I get to sit in the back seat and make my crochet grow. I’m new to crochet, but I really like it. There’s something so satisfying about the repetitive action that makes it get bigger before my eyes. This one is a blanket I’m making for my small girl. It’s much easier than the crocheted breast I made for a friend last year. (It was trophy for surviving a very difficult breast-feeding journey.)
