In the begining it was just something I had trouble grasping. My mother couldn't teach me, none of my friends knew how and the Grandmothers that could were gone.
Then it became a challenge-well, I hardly turn down a challenge. I had to learn-the clock was ticking-I was done having babies, and I still couldn't sew for the life of me!
I needed the outlet-and I needed a skill. Not a skill that would put me into the coorporate world and fill my bank account.. A skill that would fill my heart and make my soul rich.
That was only a few years ago, and here I am today making others happy with my craft, just as it once was hundreds of years ago. Yeah, I know that royalty isn't knocking at my door asking me for lace, but I sure feel special whenever someone wants a hat that I created with my own hands!
This is my first post of my first blog. Please write in and tell us how you began & why you continue to crochet. What does the craft offer you?
