...that's the voice I'm hearing in my head, from one of my favorite films, "Willow". Has it really been since 2011 that I've posted to my blog, which has seen numerous views and followers, all except from myself? lol...<br />
<br />
Back in 2011, I wanted to make some goodwill videos for those who wanted to learn the Crocodile Stitch. Since then, at least weekly, I receive notifications of new followers, new comments, and the like. I thought back then I was just posting a few videos to help some folks out, and years later, they are still being found, appreciated, and it all gets back to me, after all this time. People take up crocheting daily, I suspect, and at least weekly, someone new discovers my videos. Cool, huh?<br />
<br />
Some new things, I hope, are in the works for me and my new husband, Jesse, who just married me last week...we are wanting to create some new videos for the crocheting and knitting<br />
universe....thinking I might teach him a thing or two. How many dudes really know how to crochet, anyway?<br />
<br />
So it's nice to be back. Keep an eye out for new videos, hey, you might learn something new.<br />
<br />
God bless, Jenny<br />

I have no problem paying for an item that I don't want to make myself, from the internet.</div><div><br /></div><div>BUT, I don't think there is any reason to have to pay to learn a stitch. ONE STINKING STITCH! Then I can make anything I want! Would you expect to charge someone to learn how to make a double crochet? No, I don't think so.</div><div><br /></div><div>So I really loved this "Crocodile Stitch", but couldn't find it anywhere in an</div><div>y pattern that wasn't charging me. I did find a few videos on You-Tube and after watching them a hundred times, came up with my own method. Here is one such video: (<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puCaY4mfTo4">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puCaY4mfTo4</a>)</div><div><br /></div><div>This video, however, only shows how to create the first row, and not the second row and so forth. So again, I figured it out (MY OWN WAY, you can change it up any which way you want to!) and came out with nice results.</div><div><br /></div><div>So to be a good citizen, I will share my method with you, so that you can have a lovely scarf for yourself and your loved ones. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Crocodile Stitch Scarf</div><div><br /></div><div><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQfrXW31RCLPk-gXFe1U5EK0JEwoL6AjTvKzzJ6s4fo1SDXy602ei5u_5Mb2kjmjp2yeFNkBZ3xJADtkZClKTXrsu7lyArOgCQRxkBqZQkic3mSABs1Cc2-HS4uEyEF1c2DI6UfzmQs48W/s200/DSC00368.JPG" style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5562851129885846178" /></div><div>Medium: Crochet</div><div><br /></div><div>Tools: You can use whatever yarn/hook combination you want.
