Showing Sports Spirit in Yarn
November 6th, 2008
This is a post from John, in our New Jersey office:
My name is John, and I work in Lion Brand’s Information Technology (IT) department. I originally learned to crochet from Carolyn, my best friend in our Customer Service department. As of Nov. 11th, I will have been working here for one year. Crocheting is still an uphill battle for me, so I am not as good as other associates here, but I get by.
Like many people from New Jersey, I was born a die-hard New York Giants fan. My cubicle is adorned with a fair share of Giants paraphernalia, especially Super Bowl Champions things. Between work, football, and only a cursory knowledge of crochet, I have very little time to practice.
Luckily, my good friend Stephanie decided to make me a Giants hat for my birthday. She told me to pick the colors, yarn, and layout and she would take care of the rest. I picked Vanna’s Choice in Colonial Blue, Scarlet, and White to match the Giants’ team colors. The resulting hat keeps me warm while rooting for the Giants. Go Giants!
