I did it!

It isn't often that something I pin comes to life. Truly. There are a ton of things I would love to complete from pinterest, but very very few actually happen. This time, I completed one project from a pin, and then I pinned it. Now I have made two things from this pin. What am I talking about?

Dishcloths! I have renewed my strong liking for crochet. Heck, now I am really loving to crochet. It is something I can do when I have time, relax a little and then put down when I am needed. I do not have to worry too much if my needle comes out of my project (like with knitting), and I can usually stop myself in a spot where I can easily pick up with the pattern again, if I am using one. My mother in-law uses dishcloths like the ones in this pin, and I have always been curious then to try making some. Now I have two!

I love these because they are so useful, and I can make them fairly quick. I don't do many of the "fancier" stitches, so this pattern is great for me. I need things that are easy to understand since I have completely taught myself how to do all of this. I am in love, and can't wait to make more!

Are you planning to teach yourself something in this new year? How about crocheting? Tell me about your resolutions or plans in the comments. I love to hear what others have to say!

Until next time... Happy Learning!

Happy New Year
