This is my best friend's baby modeling my lacy butterfly pattern. when your friend has a baby, you try on all the things.
I am fascinated by "crochet theory"-- that is, the mechanics, the science, the why behind how crochet works. The physics behind a chevron pattern is so simple, it's mind-blowing. Who the heck invented the magic ring, anyway? It's genius. Think about how much more hasn't even been imagined yet. That's what I love to explore.
I've been crocheting for 17 years. I was taught the basic double crochet stitch when I was in high school by a German exchange student. I was "hooked", as they say. I haven't mastered all there is to master, but I'm certainly trying!
Here on my blog, I publish patterns for you to enjoy, interspersed with a smattering of "crochet theory". Thank you for visiting!
