Crocheting

Over the summer, I started crocheting. When I was in seventh grade, we had a time every Friday where we got to do almost any activity of our choosing. I chose to try "Arts and Crafts." The teacher, Mrs. Clark, handed us a ball of yarn and a crocheting needle, then taught us. After the class was over, I never really crocheted again, but I found the old yarn she gave to us and started to remember how to crochet. Since then, I have made four purses, a hat and a whale. I believe crocheting is fun because there are so many different ways to create new creations. To create the whale, I used a Japanese form of crocheting called amigurumi. To do this, you start off by creating a circle, instead of a line. Amigurimi is used to create various stuffed animals. I love crocheting and all the creations I can make!
