That Yarn Girl: January 2012

Sunday, January 1, 2012

Gents, this one is for you!

Ladies and gentlemen, but mostly gentlemen, tonight I bring you the Beard Hat. This creation came at the request of a family friend, and unfortunately the request was a while ago. Luckily, I was able to find a way to make the beard, which is what was slowing me down, and have finished the creation.
Also tonight I am happy to announce a first for That Yarn Girl: a model. I want to thank Bryce Maughn for being such a great sport. Enjoy and tell all the guys you know!

My Grandma's Hands

When I was in fourth grade, quite awhile ago I know, my step dad had started doing something I did not know how to do. I was lucky enough to visit my Grandma Rosier that next weekend and found out what he was doing was called crochet.

My fascination with crochet became an obsession. My dear grandmother was patient enough to teach a 10 year old how to crochet. She had an extraordinary talent for more than just crocheting, but that will come later.

As my life continued we had an opportunity to live with my grandma for a couple of years. In those years my love for crochet grew and so did my skill level. My grandma would share patterns, stitches, and help me figure out a pattern or two I did not understand.

My dear Grandma Rosier has since passed away leaving me to carry on the legacy of her talent. I was blessed enough to inherit her crochet hooks. These hooks contain years of experience I will never be able to match, but hopefully they have some tricks to help me as I continue.
