I'm such a grandma.

Another thing to add to the list of things that I love: Fruit roll-ups, Jeopardy, blueberry tea, annnnnndd.........Crocheting! My friend Meaghan and my sister Maggie taught me different ways to crochet and now I'm hooked (hah get it). I've been crocheting non-stop recently. Maybe that's why I haven't posted on my blog since the beginning of December. As a result of this insight into the world of yarn I now have way more scarves than I know what to do with. Perhaps I should pass them out to people on the streets of Columbus.

This crochet artist, Emily Barletta, makes me want to experiment beyond the solid color scarves I've become so good at. I love how her sculptures abandon the demure, domestic connotation of crocheting by making reference to body parts and wonderfully creepy scientific-ish things.  Check out her blog! http://www.emilybarletta.blogspot.com/
