Just so you don’t miss it, I’m giving away a set of three of these dishcloths towards the bottom of this (rather long) post!

Since I’m a beginner myself, I have been directing … Read More
basket full of yarn & crochet update
So, I have fully embraced the crocheting thing! I made three trips to the craft store last week, which is no small thing because I couldn’t drive.
