Like any new skill, it takes practice to reach perfection, or if not perfection, competence. The first pink owl I made is not much to my liking, but I didn't frog it because she was a learning tool. The next white owl was better, even cute. So I tried yet another one. There was a question about why I am doing this. I don't know, exactly. Because I wanted to and it was fun to master a new skill. I may throw some of them in a box and send them somewhere. I have found that people like surprises.
I am still reading the Hind's Feet. I have started a couple of books for the book club (middle school books). I want to read the new Flavia, but I haven't purchased it yet. I have ordered some research books for the book my sister and I are writing, so I am reading those. I am scattered and disorganized right now. But, that is okay. I am learning to crochet owls and perhaps this is a skill I can someday use. Or not. But, as long as it is fun, I will do it.
