A Silent Beginning

It's the silent stitch at night.  The quiet click of the camera.  The rhythmic beat on the keyboard.  And another project is finished, posted on display.  It sounds so simple, so quick, but it's so much more.  Crocheting is an art, and for me it's a form of therapy.  It's a love, a passion, and sometimes an enemy.  There are days when the yarn sits still.  And there are days when the yarn is worked, re-worked and ripped out for a third time.  But the days I love best are when I have a hook, some yarn, and a pattern in my fingers--one that was previously undiscovered--and the yarn goes from just a ball to something beautiful.  

I want to share all of my something beautifuls with you.  I want to tell you about them and show you pictures.  The beginning of a project may go easily unnoticed.  But a finished creation should be shared.
