Many people stopped to ask what I was working on (Squares for HeartMade Blessings) and I told them about crochet and even taught one person! She sat down and asked and I pulled out my extra hook and some yarn and we spent the next two hours learning granny squares! I think I've got her hooked!Theresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05909868803726751292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21109905.post-69094279830760615252010-09-12T13:58:10.425-07:002010-09-12T13:58:10.425-07:00i will be crocheting all day today. will be finis...i will be crocheting all day today. will be finishing up squares for share a square 2010 and then maybe a scarf or two. happy international crochet day to you jimbo and to everyone else...<br /><br />bBz ThingZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12919758525964834637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21109905.post-31179573107627618662010-09-12T10:45:40.514-07:002010-09-12T10:45:40.514-07:00Hi Jimbo,

This is in response to an appeal from anotherpath4/Wendy on Ravelry.

I'm taking a project to work, which I do alot, I used to be scared to because I get a lot of "old Lady" comments because I'm only 21 and it's not "cool" but I just don't care anymore because it's something I like to. & I plan to teach a co worker of mine on breaks. She's mentioned wanting to learn. So I'm going to suprise her with a spare hook and some yarn. =-]Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02939944386840494449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21109905.post-80864895114113542072010-09-08T12:08:32.765-07:002010-09-08T12:08:32.765-07:00Sunday Crochet International Day is also Grandpare...Sunday Crochet International Day is also Grandparents Day and I'll be doing some crochet at the park while watching my grandson have fun playing!

On September 12th I will be signing as a volunteer editor on Ravelry in order to edit a lot of crochet pattern pages that really need some organization.

With my health, I tend to not make plans for future dates, as I never know how I'll feel when the date finally rolls around.<br /><br />That being said, how do I promote crochet? I take some with me and work on it, in full view of everyone with every doctor's appointment, and every other place I know I'll have to wait. I'm attempting to teach my kids to crochet, though some are picking it up faster than others. I make presents (crocheted of course) for everyone I know and sometimes for those I don't.<br /><br />In other words, I figure the best way to promote it is to teach it to new generations and show off the things you can make to people all year round, not just on one particular date each year.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08266730921142493769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21109905.post-872108755029839952010-09-07T18:02:40.806-07:002010-09-07T18:02:40.806-07:00I will be teaching 2 people to crochet on that day...I will be teaching 2 people to crochet on that day.

So I spend my time with the kids, if they are capable I teach them the art of crochet, the little ones like to watch. that is how I keep the ART going.
