A stitch in time...

Very few know that I am an artisan...  My medium is yarn...

The other day, I saw a visitor steadfastly crocheting, as they were waiting at the bedside of my patient.  I remarked about there work, and was allowed to see up close the project.  I was amazed at how a single strand of yarn, could produce such a thick piece!

I watched as they made a stitch... or three... and quickly deconstructed it, and now know how to replicate it!  It is a "Waffle Stitch," a pattern of repeating double crochets.

I have since frogged a project, and started a new one!  It is simple, quickly growing, and ultimately better than it was!  Perhaps it will be completed by Christmas!
