A lazy day crocheting. I thought I was going to get some new color yarn, but Walmart was a let down. I am not going to give up on finding more yarn at another store or even online.
I found this red heart yarn. I was just looking at the colors. It wasn’t until I got home that I noticed it was, âThe granny all in one square.â It is a good thing I wasnât planning on doing granny squares, because it wasnât going to work anway.
I didnât know how I was going to reuse the dark grey yarn after taking it from a different project. The grey was too dark, with the light pink, but I believe these new colors will blind together much better. The sun is still out and I am still enjoying my day off. Time to get back to my new grey project. I am still thinking about adding a little more black in it, so it wonât be so light. Only time will tell about that add on.
My eyes want to close, but my mind keeps adding more things I want and need to do. There just isnât enough time in a day to do everything I want to do. I want to start filling my new book with each new project.
I wanted to make a cotton candy shawl and a butterfly throw. I thought that was just an idea, but when I was in Hobby Lobby I saw these two yarns.
I found a few crochet shawl ideas on youtube and there were a few I liked. This is the one I chose. If you like it, try it. I have one more skein of yarn to go and mine will be done.

People are talking about shopping at Black owned businesses, but what about shopping at a Christian business?
I shop, never really thinking about the company or their background. I only saw the deals and if I can get to it by the bus.
Then you hear what some big companies are doing and without realizing it, these companies are hiding a dark side, and it makes you start having second thoughts about shopping there.
I never really shopped at Hobby Lobby. The one time I was there, I kind of just walked through, because I didn’t see any brand names I knew.
I keep telling myself I should try something new, but yarn costs too much to be taking a chance on. Then by chance someone gave me some yarn and to my surprise most of it came from Hobby Lobby.
I wish I had kept the wrapping, because this yarn reminded me of Caron’s simply soft yarn. I really enjoyed working with it. Yes, it is yarn from Hobby Lobby.
I also decided I am going to take a chance on my gift. I am not the best person who knows how to crochet, but I LOVE doing it. It is about time I start getting paid for what I enjoy doing.
I will help others crochet too, because I am tired of hearing:
I can’t crochetÂ
It’s too hard to crochetÂ
I use to do it, but have no time now
I want to prove everyone wrong and show them how to enjoy crocheting a little at a time. I found out that Hobby Lobby is a Christian company, so I am going to add this store to my shopping list. I can’t wait to see my next chapter.
I am so over crocheting scarves. It doesnât matter how long I am crocheting, I donât seem to be getting any closer to the number of 23, but I donât want to give up. Then I thought, what if I just worked a few granny squares together, and I can count that as one scarf done.
I have a bag full of granny squares. It took a few moments to get the right colors, the same yarn, and the right amount to make a scarf. The correct number is 20 if you wanted to know.
It was a good idea, until I remembered it takes a few to stitch each square together, and then I am going to have to crochet the border. I donât know what I was thinking. I have 11 done, and was told I would be given two, but so far that is an empty number. Oh well, let me get back to crocheting. I have 5 days to come up with 13 more scarfsâŚ
