now for a crafty post: hat challenge

Hiya, dear readers. Those of you in the online knitting nerdery club probably know about hat attack, a competition where knitting, speed, and "murder" collide.

There are tons of competitions designed for those crafty among us. EtsyHookers is hosting a hat focused crochet challenge with a deadline of September 9th. Plenty of time to finish a hat, so if you're a crocheter, I urge you to give it a try. I've been on a knitting kick lately, so I donno if I'm going to enter. Plus I have books to read, spiders to decimate annhiliate, gardens to garden. But I look forward to seeing some more creativity in hat format, so get yourself to the competition, ya'll!

If you don't know how to knit, check out youtube! They have crochet videos too.
