A New Level of Lame

Today I was doing an LYS (local yarn store) search on google, and I stumbled aross a knitting message board talking about knitting groups in Delaware and the MD Eastern Shore. Apparently there is a knitting group that meets right down the street from my church. Crazy! There's all of these women from my area with knitting blogs and knitting guilds. It looks like I'll have plenty to work with when I try to start a charity knitting thing. The yarn store in Bel Air, Ewenique Yarns, has a program called Hats for the Homeless. They will give you a ball of yarn, and you make any kind of hat, and when you bring it back they give you 5% off your next purchase.

Over Easter weekend I was experimenting with baby hats and my mom started crocheting. My first hat was tiny and the second one was a little funny looking, but I wasn't working from a pattern so its all trial and error. My mom has so far only made crocheted key chains, as far as I know.

*Update: my mom is crocheting away and has the better part of one sweater done.
