I Should Work For NASCAR

Seriously.
I can rip out a crochet project that took hours in 18.262 seconds.

Just look at what I've accomplished this week:

Baby sweater that was supposed to be size 0-3 months.


It looked like it could fit John.

Rrrriiiiipppp.

Market tote.


I'm on my third go of it. I deliberately keep miscounting ... trying to improve my demolition time you see.


Now if I could only clear my cutting table as fast as I can rip a seam ...


maybe then NASCAR will hire me.

Amazing how quickly yarn is ripped out after such a long time crocheting! I'm working on Purl Bee's crochet bag and I've ripped out several rounds several times! you.are.not.alone.

You are amazing! I wish I knew how to crochet. My nana taught me when I was younger. I wish I would have paid more attention!

My friend Karen can crank out a baby blanket in the time I can knit 1/2 a scarf.

I'm pretty sure NASCAR's going to bring you on board. You can crochet and rip out stitches at 175 mph. How fun would that be?!

I love your blog! I am so thrilled to be your partner for the cozy swap. I sent you an email. Can't wait to hear from you.
The same things happens to me sometimes with the crocheting and counting.

LOL! I just spent a chunk of last week unraveling sweaters I'd lovingly knitted (but with no concept of gauge). Sigh.
