I’ve spent this last week thinking about my blog. I decided to try blogging as a way to talk about my love of crochet. I keep starting tweets about exciting yarn or fantastic new ideas, only to realise that my current twitter friends just don’t appreciate crochet the way I do! So I delete the tweets rather than bombard friends and that results in endless chit chat to poor hubby. And bless him, whilst he does love me, he does not love my yarn collection!
So this is my new outlet for all my crochet related thoughts, ideas, inspirations and lightbulb moments.
I started with my concept of “hook and duck” and I have to say I’m pretty excited about taking duck out for trips and new adventures. Then I started to build this blog. I started on Sunday by registering and added bits and bobs over the last few days. I woke up at 3am on Wednesday morning and spent a couple of hours thinking about colour schemes and early blog choices (I’m not as young as I used to be & I’m still feeling the effects of a sleepless night three days later).
Now my site is pretty much done and I’m actually sitting here writing my first blog – about setting up a blog! It wasn’t as difficult as I thought it would be, although I still have to get my head around a couple of things, I think I’m ready to go. And I’m certainly ready to get back to crochet, I’ve spent so much time at the computer my crochet hand is getting twitchy and I’m itching to finish my coral cardigan. I bought a beautiful lime green button to go with it and am looking forward to putting it all together.
So, I’ve broken the ice, taken the leap and written my first post, the first of many I hope. Let the crochet musings commence!
