Has anyone found my crochet hook?

Let’s see…

A couple of months ago, I decided to crochet a blanket for my boyfriend’s queen-sized bed. I found a terrific pattern that wasn’t so much about “traditional squares” or colors, but incorporated incredibly bright colors into this blanket.

However, the yarn that was suggested is…well, quite pricey. Three skeins cost thirty dollars, and believe me, there’s nothing like “Koigu” hand-dipped coloured yarn.

So, I’ve been buying yarn at the usual suspects like “JoAnn’s” or “Michael’s”.

You know, the stuff that won’t need to be dry cleaned!

I haven’t crocheted in years, but all of this is coming back to me.

It’s a great skill to have!

Well, I'm going to finish this one project, and then start on our blanket!

Which is going to look absolutely amazing! ;*)
