Errands not withstanding, it was shaping up to be a very good morning.

In an effort to harness the crochet mojo that was working for me, I grabbed my copy of Tamie Snow’s book “Tiny Yarn Animals,” my crochet hooks, three balls of Red Heart Super Saver yarn (aran, black, and gray heather) and headed out the door with my youngest son in tow to get him to his dental appointment.
