the sweet smells of blogging...
so i broke down and started my own crocheting/crafting blog...sometimes i'm more motivated than others to actually produce items..but because my friend started her knitting blog i just cant get enough and her being lazy...doesn't post every 10 minutes to keep up with my ADD. And though i have a myspace, i don't think they want to hear about all my crazy crocheting things....i am the crochetinator...the name was a randomness of life and i couldn't think of anything else...do you mind?
ok for the crochet talk!!
i have many a projects to do....and finish...i just haven't found the time to do them really. Like this afghan that i've been making since MAY...i am probably about 40% done with the granny squares but still have to do the edging on them all, i just got the yarn last week from knit picks. it's going to be like 6 different colors, 5 in squares and 1darker on all of them...i'm using the wool of the andes and making a pretty large one...so i should really start going on that again...
my grandma gave me a bunch of old yarn too and some really cool 80s crochet magazines and i want to make this cool football thing for david and then a monkey too :) and there's some other randomness that needs to go down....but for david's i have to finish before the end of football season because i didn't finish his scarf until...april...and it's not cold in april anymore! so i need to get going on that but somehow i am missing all but 2 of my crochet hooks, so i have to go get more :( but they're not expensive so it's all good!
and then i have to finish a bunch of shrugs, i have at least 3 that i have to make and want to do this other one that i found online that's really cool made out of these random granny squares so it's a lot of fun! but i have to keep on this or i won't do it..
oh and i have a real job that takes me away from crocheting, though i do enjoy doing it on my lunch breaks! and then i look like i'm 80! but hey, i enjoy it! luckily my second job allows me time to do things like crocheting all the time...and my brother is getting married at the end of september so i have to focus on looking great for the wedding...so that's my first blog, i hope you enjoy the randomness and hopefully i'll update more and more and eventually put pictures up!

Yeah...how's about that bandwagon?! Jump up on it, baby! So, you need to tell me where the granny square shrug is online...so I can see if I want to start another project I won't finish too! lol. Hey, at the last minute I learned there was a knitting convention in rosemont so I paid 8 dollars to get into the market and I bought WAY TOO MUCH stuff. I thought of you the whole time, but like I said...it was last a minute discovery. I'll put pictures up later. Hey, put a link to my blog on your blog...I'll do it too!
