Yards and Yards and Yards




After yesterday's co-op class, my 8-year-old K declared that she had found a new calling in life: creating yards and yards and yards of finger-crocheted chain. Let me tell you, she is fast! I went in the office for a few minutes to write that last blog post, and when I emerged, I found this:

I'm going to look into that book for my son. He loves yarn. Thanks for the idea. :)
