And The Peasants Rejoiced!

Welcome to my little crocheting corner of the 'net. I'm Christina, freshly engaged to my boyfriend of 8 years and to be honest, am freaking out over all the plans I have to make.  I've been crocheting for over 10 years but this is the first time I'm going to put myself out there with the things I make out of yarn and a hook. 

I felt empowered this morning though when I was trudging into work and some random woman got on the elevator with me and said, "Third floor please.  Oh!  I love your bag!".  I pushed the button and realized she was talking about the crocheted purse I'd made for myself several weeks ago.  ::blush::  I told her I'd made it myself and she looked shocked.  But asked me right away if it was knitted or crocheted.  :)

I just joined a group on Ravelry for bloggers and while they are at the tail end of their year long blog-a-long, I'm jumping in feet first so I hold myself accountable for the things I want to make for the wedding.

I'm going to make a page for the patterns I plan on working on now and throughout the year.  We're thinking of an October wedding so I'd better get hooking!
