I started a new project (yes, I know I haven’t finished those socks yet–don’t judge me). Take a look–
Wait, what?!? That’s not knitting! No, indeed. I appear to have become one of those most befuddling and envied of knitters: the duel crafter. How’s that for a comic book character? Duel Crafter–able to wield both knitting needles and crochet hooks with the same reckless abandon.
I never particularly wanted to crochet; I still don’t think the finished product is as attractive as a knitted one. But crochet does have one distinct advantage over knitting. It is much much faster. I am not a fast knitter, and I needed to make a baby blanket. In order to get it finished before the baby is finished, I turned to the enemy. The enemy is my enemy no longer.
The Woolie Ewe is having a giant sale, and to reassure myself that knitting is tops with me, I went and got the makings for a Noro Striped Scarf.
Some lucky someone will get one for Christmas next year.
