Yards of Yarn
Hello! I am a stitch craft enthusiast. My maternal grandmother taught me and my sister how to crochet in September 2000. We had just turned 8 years old and I clearly remembering my mom telling my grandma that we were too young to learn. I've got vivid memories of that moment. With me on one side of my grandma and my sister on the other as she sat in her recliner and leaned over to show us both.

My grandmother passed away just 6 months later and I am so lucky that she was able to pass on this talent. I didn't practice very often in the beginning, but once I reached about the age of 10 I picked it back up. I remember that a majority of my childhood years involved staying indoors and watching ABC Family just crocheting away. That's when the neighbor taught me and my sister how to double crochet. I enjoyed it much more because it was a lot quicker to show progress without having to create so many rows. It was from then on that I knew my projects would take off.
In the early stages I mainly crocheted tea towels and the occasional afghan. During this time my sister and I became little entrepreneurs and started selling our towels. I was a big saver then too; always into numbers. I was even able to use the money to later help pay for college.
Joe's Blanket
This was and still is by far the biggest blanket I have crocheted. Joe wanted one big enough for his king size bed and his favorite color is green so I couldn't go wrong with these bold colors.
Taylor's
No gift is better than something homemade. As a wedding gift I crocheted this for my friend Taylor. I started the project while on the road for our annual float trip. Unfortunately Taylor was unable to make the trip since she was planning her Fall wedding. It totally felt different that year without her, but she was definitely on my mind during the drive.
