{My new favorite place}

i found a new favorite place. well, it's actually not new and i've liked this place for a while but now it's my new favorite place for finding great crochet patterns!! etsy.com has some of the cutest patterns out there and now that i know how to crochet i also taught myself how to read a pattern. there are so many possibilities out there!!  i recently got my hands on some patterns for the most adorable hats and i had so much fun making them! check them out below. the name of the store where i purchased the patterns are below so that i can give credit where credit is due!

{Why all the crocheting...}

i can remember back when i was younger spending a lot of time with my dear sweet grandma. she was and still is a very special and very important person that the lord has given to me. in that time growing up i can remember doing all sorts of things with her. spaghetti dinners every tuesday, garage sales anytime, doll shopping all the time, ceramic painting some of the time, playing yahtzee a must, but when it came to my grandma's hobby of crocheting, I was NOT interested. funny now, considering that i can't seem to get the crochet hook out of my hands. my grandma came out for a visit not so long ago and while spending some time with her she taught me how to crochet. this time i was interested. she just taught me the basics, but that's all i needed, and now, well the rest is history. thanks grandma for the lessons, i love you.
