its time for a hobby!

okay so i've found myself recently going home and doing one of the follow:

  • vegging out in front of the tv
  • going to bed early
  • making a mess of my apartment
  • going on pinterest rampages 
  • reading (perfectly acceptable option really)
none of these are terrible but what do you really have to show for any of them (other then a lot of damn pin's that one day "i'll do eventually"). so taking my friend Alex's lead I picked up a hobby (she picked up knooking). what is this hobby you ask...  drum roll please.... crocheting!

yes... i'm old lady brianna and i don't care because its quite an enjoyable hobby! when i was younger i taught myself (well my mom and my neighbor helped i suppose) how to knit. but i would just knit aimlessly -- no real end project maybe other then a scarf. 

with crocheting there are SO many more fun options (though I am finding lots of fun knitting projects too). so far i've completed a few projects! i made bodie his photo shoot scarf and myself a fun cowl neck (LOVE it). i've also been working on a baby blanket for my friend marissa and her gem of a baby girl emma (shhhh its a surprise) and an afghan for myself. megan has requested a grey cowl neck as well so thats my project tonight during the election coverage. check it out yall:

yarn for megan's cowl neck!

baby blanket in the works!!! its a pretty cream/green/pink/brown color!

completed cowl neck.... yea i'm impressed with myself! 
anywho, i'm excited out the potential here. etsy store maybe? i guess i have to get good first! what kind of projects would you crochet? needless to say my pinterest is WAY overloaded with projects, tutorials and yarn beautifulness! 

peace love 'n lots of yarn yall!
