Yarn

Hi, my name is Pam and I’m a yarn-a-holic.

I had a sudden realization this week: I like yarn. I like to make things with yarn. I like to look at yarn. I like to buy yarn. I really like to go to yarn stores. I like to learn new ways to use yarn. Yarn yarn yarn yarn. However, there is a problem here in Mongolia: yarn is not that easy to find. When I do find it, it is either cheap acrylic yarn (not so bad if you are really desperate….which I am) or expensive Mongolian wool yarn.  So, I am sitting with the last skein of cotton yarn that I brought with me this March (I only brought 3 skeins) and am working it and then un-raveling and re-working it. But, I am learning as I go some new stitches and am using the crochet hooks that my parents sent in the last package.

Here are a couple of videos I have been watching and learning how to crochet in the ‘Tunisian’ style of crocheting.
