Crochet Critters

My daughter loves to create...
drawing and music when she was younger,
then knitting as she got older.
Lately, she's been on a crocheting kick
and she spends literally hours a day at it.
She's made blankets, sweaters,
hats, and more hats.
But my favorites are her little critters.
She sends me pictures from school,
I see them on her Instagram page,
I watch her make them at home,
I photograph them "on location,"
I find them hidden for me when she leaves.
She never worries about perfection,
never gets frustrated or compares herself.
She just gets pure enjoyment from making
and giving. Hobbies are that simple...
if we let them be.

  2. I’m a major fan of panda’s! My aunt Tracy is the crocheter of the family. She literally made a pillow a few years ago that looked like one on sale at Lowe’s.#skills
