Getting Started Blogging

Well, I finally settled on a name for this. I chose Calico in honor of my beloved kitty, a gorgeous muted calico. She is my baby and just about everything I make has a bit of her in it, as well as her approval after testing for comfort and warmth.

I have been crocheting for a long time. My mother got me started as a teen. I didn't follow up on it until I was in my early 20's. I made several afghans over the years and then set it aside for a while. About 7 years ago, I picked it up in earnest again. and haven't taken any real breaks from it since. Crochet has become more than a hobby. It is my passion.

I am in the process of making blanket for each of my children, including the ones I accumulated without actually giving birth to them. I have 9 done and 4 more to do. They can all be seen on Ravelry at http://www.ravelry.com/projects/vabb36

Once I have all of that generation taken care of, I will start making blankets for each of the grandkids. There is a bunch of them and I am sure there will be more before I finish.
