I've been crocheting for a few months now. I find it comforting to sit and stitch and have something take shape in my hands. I loved having something to do on the plane and while watching TV. I've made several dishcloths and I've even managed to make a scarf. Granted it's for a little girl but it's still a scarf!

I had my third crochet lesson this past week and I'm making progress! It only took me 10 minutes to learn double half stitch (as opposed to the 2 hours to learn the full double stitch!) I was also able to learn how to crochet in a circle. I'm exited about this one cause it means I can make a hat! Or at least tempt to make a hat anyway.
My goal in learning is to make a rag rug. I found this
tutorial and I want to make one for the entry way and one for in front of the fireplace. I think I'll make a round one for in front of the fireplace and I'm going to try to make a rectangle on for the entry way. I've bought 4 sheets so far...now to cut them up and start to crochet them! I think I'm going to start on the rectangle one first...I'll keep you posted on how it goes!
