I taught myself a new trick

I have been keeping myself busy with a new trick I've taught myself. Ok well not a new trick per say but I have taught myself how to crochet! I'm not crocheting to make items to sell but just to keep my hands busy. While I'm working at my real job all I do is doodle. I've gotten quite tired of doodling and decided to learn to crochet in order to keep my mind thinking.

So far I know how to crochet a single crochet and a double crochet stitch. When it comes to reading patterns, they still all look like gibberish. Right now I'm making my little sister a small purse/bag and then my mom a scarf. Keep it simple. That's what all I can really do at the moment. One day I'd like to get good enough to make the cute little dolls my fellow crafter Tamie Snow of Roxycraft makes!

Check back tomorrow for a big Charming Co. announcement!! :D
