Welcome!

Well, as usual instead of taking a bite I have swallowed the whole cookie... I've been crocheting mediocre blankets for about a year now and I found a website that inspired me to learn how to do more. My "pet" cause (pun intended) is the welfare of stray animals, and my neighborhood has a lot... more than I can afford to take in, sadly. I decided to start this blog so that like-minded animal lovers can follow my progress in this area, and possibly be inspired to help as well. My mission is to make toys for the strays at the local Humane Society shelter, and possibly raise some money to help get more strays off the street, or to prevent the strays from being there in the first place by facilitating more free spay and neuter clinics. I will be posting my progress as I teach myself (with the help of Ravelry.com and Youtube) to craft more complicated projects... leading up to items useful to pet shelters, such as toys, animal beds, etc. Please stay tuned; all commentary is welcome.

Days 4 and 5

Well, I've been a little busy, but I finally found a good granny square tutorial, so I wanted to share that with all of you.

Here is a photo of my first try-- not too bad for a first shot, if I do say so myself.

 Here is the link for the tutorial if you want to try it for yourself!
