A long weekend of not exactly crocheting

As an absolute beginning crocheter, I have a lot to learn. This weekend I learned that I need to darn in my yarn ends as I finish each block. Otherwise, I will spend many mind-numbing hours threading the needle, weaving the yarn and cutting the yarn. Threading the needle, weaving the yarn and cutting the yarn. Threading the needle, weaving the yarn and cutting the yarn.

All without the assistance of football!! Well, American football. There was plenty of soccer so I guess I should be glad there was something interesting to watch.

Where did I find the determination to keep going with my daunting task? Well, I had finished all of the center blocks of my throw and I absolutely could not resist stitching the blocks together.

Ta Da!!

Now I have sixteen blocks to make to go around these center blocks. See?
