I have three birthdays coming up in the next couple weeks. I also saw a baby blanket the other day that used something called the popcorn stitch. Now I love popcorn and I love crochet, but I don't really need a baby blanket. So last night while my husband and daughter where hanging out with friends and I was home with a sleeping toddler (ack, I guess I should say preschooler now that he's 3. I just don't want to admit he's growing up this fast) I decided to make something with this new stitch. It's turning out really cute. There is a definite rhythm to it, single, double, double, skip2, repeat. Right now I'm not exactly sure what it's going to end up being. Could be a scarf or a wrap or maybe a lap blanket or throw. Since I'm pretty sure that at least one of the people with an upcoming birthday also reads here, I really can't say much more than that!
