Counting My Blessings #12 - Crocheting

I am very grateful for yarn and crocheting. I love making blankets and hats, and it is a really fun hobby. It begins with stitch upon stitch until strings have been turned into something useful. While I am working on it, it reminds me of:
2 Nephi 28:30 "For behold, thus saith the Lord God: I will give unto the children of men line upon line, precept upon precept, here a little and there a little; and blessed are those who hearken unto my precepts, and lend an ear unto my counsel, for they shall learn wisdom; for unto him that receiveth I will give more..."
and Alma 37:6 Now ye may suppose that this is foolishness in me; but behold I say unto you, that by small and simple things are great things brought to pass; and small means in many instances doth confound the wise.

Here are some of my creations:

I love the blanket you made for Jordan, but I get nervous letting him use it. He's a dirty little creature!
