You might be a crochet-aholic if....

YOU MIGHT BE A CROCHET-AHOLIC IF……

  • your kids tell you that you don’t need to go to the yarn store because you have your own yarn store in the basement.
  • you can’t leave the house without your yarn and hook.
  • you have more yarn & hooks than a crochet store.
  • when shopping, you head to the yarn department first.
  • you have more than one crochet hook in your purse, but you don’t have any working writing tools.
  • your first question after being informed by the doctor that you need shoulder surgery is…will I still be able to crochet?
  • you would rather buy yarn than a new pair of shoes.
  • your Pinterest contains more patterns than you will ever be able to complete in one lifetime!
  • you find crochet hooks in the dryer after doing a load of laundry!
  • you would rather crochet than be on Facebook.
  • your sleep is disturbed by thoughts of new patterns.
  • you dont pay your rent cuz you need to add to your stash.
  • you have 8 wips and can’t wait to start another one, oh and you know what a wip is!
  • everything you see can be made of yarn!
  • you can’t find your hook and later discover it tangled in your hair.
  • you cry when your physical therapist tells you not to crochet until your shoulder is better.
  • you need a separate house just for your yarn.
  • you crochet food items instead of going to the grocery store and buy them.
  • you jump up from a deep sleep saying, “that is what I am going to make next!”
  • your husband tells his friends you have more yarn than Walmart.
Anyone have any other great ones to add?

New Project: AmiguruME

I don't know about anyone else but I am absolutely in love with Crafty is Cool. Allison Hoffman is a genius when it comes to designing patterns. I have never tried to design a crochet pattern as I do not think I know enough about them in order to do it. So my next project is to try out her new book which I faithfully preordered months in advance and just received the other day. I also purchased AmiguruME for my cousin who wants to get into crochet. Hopefully she'll like it when I give it to her for Christmas. Today I start on the head. I finally have a yarn color that matches my skin tone so Minime isn't going to be ridiculously white in comparison.

She has been abandoned and a new doll is in progress. I will give updates as I go along. Right now it's just the top of the head and I don't think that's much worth posting. xD
