I did it!

The last time I touched my crochet hooks was in February just before the big move. Today, I stayed home and decided to unpack my yarns, hooks, stitch markers, and all the rest of my crochet materials. I decided I should push myself to crochet again. And since I stayed all day, I had nothing else to do but to crochet. I made a little mermaid amirugumi. Took me four hours to finish it which is longer than I used to. I felt like a beginner again. Had to redo some stitches and I was slower than I used to. I was a fast crochet. Anyway I did it and my friend in France was so happy that he decided to go shopping for me again tonight. He'll find me some yarn holder and cute Eiffel tower scissors.

It's better to keep moving in this heat than setting still and crocheting. It's nice to cuddle up in the cooler months and crochet. Eiffel tower scissors sound interesting.

That sounds like such a great idea, to get back into it. Your work is always so impressive.

Good, I am glad you got back into it. That makes me think I should order some paint by number. I like doing those.
