"IF" for crocheters!

(With the humblest, most grovelling of apologies to Rudyard Kipling, his family, friends and fans)  IF you can keep your hooks when all about you  Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when knitters doubt you, But make allowance for their knitting too; If you can hook and not be tired by hooking, Or crochet lied about, don't deal in lies, Or being slated, don't give way to slating, And yet don't hook too good, nor talk too wise:If you can hook - and not make WIPs…See More

How I became a Crocheter

How I Became a Crocheter, by Erica Jane Smith, Aged 37¾I come from a family of knitters. Oh sure, they can crochet, and sew, and there's the occasional bit of cross stitch and tapestry, but if I had to place them into any particular box, it would be the knitting one. I, on the other hand, am categorically NOT a knitter. I -can- knit, I just don't enjoy it. I find it a struggle, counter-intuitive, and incredibly heavy going. If there's more than 30 stitches cast on, and the yarn happens to be…See More

Weeeeeeeellllll.....

Crochet's a b*tch, its a big fat b*tch, its the biggest b*tch in the whole wide world,

Its a stupid b*tch if there ever was a b*tch, its a b*tch to all the boys and girls,

On Monday its a b*tch, on Tuesday its a b*tch, on Wednesday through Saturday its a b*tch,

Then on Sunday, just to be different, its a super King Kong mayo mayo b*tch.

IF you can keep your hooks when all about you 

Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,

If you can trust yourself when knitters doubt you,

But make allowance for their knitting too;

If you can hook and not be tired by hooking,

Or crochet lied about, don't deal in lies,

Or being slated, don't give way to slating,

And yet…
