The beginning of my crochet addiction
I knew I liked it when I crocheted the blanket for Mackenzie. But I did a craft swap recently on my momma board and am now a complete addict. Sebastian has aked me to please just stop doing it for a while. There are crochet hooks, yarn, patterns, half finished projects all over the apartment. And I have a feeling it’s only going to get worse.
Anyhoo, now that my swapee has received her gifts, I can post some pics of the projects I made.
This is a shawl that must have started, torn apart and started again at least three times.

I also made a book mark and some magnets. My swapee’s husband is in the military, hence the patriotic theme with the magnets.
Also, I sent some of my pretzel rods dipped in caramel and chocolate and I dipped some oreos, too. She said she’s probably going to send some of those to her husband, which I thought was pretty neat. I don’t personally know anybody over there, so the thought that something I made is going to be sent as a treat to brighten the day of one of our troops is really cool to me.
