Posted: Jan 15, 2009

From the title of your entry, I was expecting to see some big burly Marine getting busy with a crochet hook and some yarn. Cool pics.

Shouldn't there also be a velvet Elvis showcased on the walls above the crochet art?

That's cool! There are free patterns for similar corals on Lion Brand yarns website. Also, check out there for hyperbolic equations in crochet, it is wild! I can't remember the mathematician's name, but I seem to think she came from Lithuania to the States.

Awesome job. That was so amazing to see. But like AuntySocial, I was expecting to see a man busy with hook and yarn in hand.

I thought the same thing...military personnel learning crochet. It's certainly good for stress relief.
