As we go through the stay at home order and social distancing, I find myself even busier doing all types of crafts and hobbies. During the last few days, I have been sewing some fabric face masks and have been mailing them to family and friends who need it as they can't find any in their area. When I need to take a break from sewing I switch to crocheting. I might have shown you already the multi colored baby blanket that I started a couple of weeks ago. Now that I have finished it, I started a new one and with my sister's suggestion with regards to the design and color, the next blanket is starting to look nice. Since I am not a real crochet person, I only know very few stitches but enough to be able to make a blanket or a coaster or maybe even a wash cloth. I have no idea on how to read a pattern so most of my crocheting is guessing game. I like doing it while watching the news which actually I am not watching, just listening. With whatever yarn I have left, I will try to make something whether it's a coaster or hot plate or wash cloth. By the end of this staying at home order, I won't have any yarn left which means the crocheting hobby will be set aside for a while.
