I love learning about new things... last night... I ventured out... I attended the L-M Garden Club meeting in Lometa.
I’m not fond of driving at night (or early morning) - the absolute darkness that the countryside brings then the occasional bright headlights - albeit few and far between - makes me nervous. And then it’s the deer, or raccoons, or armadillos, or skunks crossing the road.
Twice a skunk crossed in front of me. I did manage to avoid both encounters - one on my way to town, the other on my way home! Had I been "unfortunate" neither place would have wanted me to stay!
I know, I attended a “garden club” meeting and learned something new about crochet! A friend told me about the year long effort she made creating a “Sophie’s Universe” afghan. She explained how it starts out as a circle and each row around is basically a new stitch/technique - a circle that ends up becoming a square. Several times she said she learned so much while creating it. This intrigued me!
So this morning I did a bit of research...
Oh. My. Goodness.
I found exactly what Gail was talking about at Look at what I made!
Then I found It’s all in a Nutshell Crochet, a fabulous YouTube channel with tutorials on each step!
I downsized my yarn stash a few years ago. I've never regretted, and still don't, giving 99% of it to a friend...
Oh well. I think I saw a touch of yellow somewhere yesterday while working on the Save, Donate, Burn sacks tubs and boxes in the sewing room... I will keep looking for the yellow.
Thank you Gail!
