I'm Hooked

By Mary Ann Henn © 1991

Issue: March, 1991

Hold the yarn and loop it
Pull the yarn through the loop
Do it for 100 stitches -
That's called a chain. Now
Put the hook through the first
Loop. Then pull yarn through two
Loops on the hook. Do this
One hundred times, too.
I know this by heart
of course. And I'm not
Trying to teach YOU
How to crochet! I'm just
Reviewing and hypnotizing
myself on my favorite hobby.
