Day 12: Crochet 101

Monday night's 30 Days to 30 adventure took me across town to a Crochet 101 class at JoAnn Fabrics and Crafts.

I've never crocheted before, however, I have knitted (not very well, I must add). I'd love to be able to crochet a baby blanket for my new nephew this fall. But something tells me I'll have to fall back on some of my other creative talents to come up with a unique gift for him.

I did pick up the skill of crocheting very quickly. I can now chain stitch, single crochet and double crochet. If I feel like paying another $40 for the next class I can learn how to ripple and a few other stitches. I think I might just call on a few of my more yarn-talented friends instead!

If nothing else, the class got me off the hook for the kids bedtime (no pun intended, ha ha).
