March is National Crochet Month!

How do you celebrate National Crochet Month, you may ask? Here are some ideas:

-Wear your crocheted items! It's still cool enough out to show off your favorite scarf.
-Teach someone how to crochet. Pass on the art to family members or friends.
-Make items for charity. There are many great organizations that will accept handmade items.
-Finish that project that's been gathering dust in the closet.
-Learn a new trick or try a pattern you wouldn't normally try.
-Crochet a blanket or other item and send it to one of the troops overseas.
