Uh why didn't anyone tell me that Crochet is fast?
ok, so i did hear that crochet was faster than knitting, but woah! it's faster than i'd imagined. It usually takes me much more than a day to finish the front or back of a shirt, which is essentially how long my cupcake is going to take. i'll post pictures when i get a chance, but it barely needs to go onto the in progress section, because it's going to be taken off so fast!
Dont' get me wrong, i still love knitting, but when i need something fast, i'm sure i'll turn to hooking. hahah
anyway, about the yarn from last post It's Butterfly Mercerized cotton. it's so clean feeling, and i think i'm in love with cotton in general, but this stuff is amazing (why is it that people don't like cotton anyway?) it's from Greece, which makes me feel like i should be looking out over the ocean when i knit. It also reminds me that my information about Greece is taken entirely from the Illiad and The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. The color is #62, and they are really more vibrant than pictures i can show you with my crappy digicam. (in case you were wondering about why all my pictures are so crappy, the view screen of my camera shattered,and i'm still trying to get up the nerve to buy a new one).
Oh and i forgot! Fad Classic was finished last night! I have to weave in the ends, and then i promise pictures galore!

I definately need to try crochet. My friend can crochet an entire queen-sized blanket in the time it takes me to knit a purse!
it's a lot of fun. i don't know if it'll ever take the place of knitting in my heart, but it's good to switch it up from time to time
