That Yarn Girl: White Elephant

Friday, September 7, 2012

Oh, you are going to love this! One of the awesome ladies in my neighborhood asked me to make these hats for her as a family white elephant gift. Let me know what you think!

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.
