Word play!
I don't know what it was that inspired me, but a month ago I made the decision that I was going to learn how to crochet. I immediately went to Joann Fabrics, bought myself the variety pack of crochet needles and a skein of yarn.

My timing could not have been more perfect. The archivist where I work informed me that she had recently started a monthly "Fiber Time" gathering. It is a knitting/sewing/fiber working get together for anyone in the area to show off what they're working on, get advice, and enjoy each other's company. The archivists enthusiastically offered to teach me how to crochet at the next meeting. As I told her I'd definitely be there, a part of me wondered if I'd turned into an adorable 90 year old recently. Boy, am I glad I ignored that annoying part of my brain.
