It was a terrible, frightening time for all of us, but the people at U of I were wonderful, and I still have the little handmade hat he was given. I am so happy that I now have the opportunity to give back to the same program.

Your influence on the community is gargantuan. But h<\/strong><strong>ow did you first learn to crochet? Did you have a mentor? Did you teach yourself? Did you travel&nbsp;back in&nbsp;time, creating a paradoxical time loop?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Moogly:&nbsp;<\/strong>I picked up finger knitting somewhere in grade school, from my friends, and fell in love with yarn crafting right away! But it wasn\u2019t until I was a new mom that I met someone who taught me to crochet \u2013 my&nbsp; sister-in-law! Once she showed me how to chain and single crochet I was off and running, and teaching myself everything I could!<\/p>\n<p><strong>LB: What was your first yarn project? The first project you were really proud of?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Moogly:&nbsp;<\/strong>My very first project was a simple pouch bag. It was supposed to be a scarf, but I got impatient to do more, so I folded it in half, seamed up the sides, and added a strap. All just figuring it out on my own! It wasn\u2019t groundbreaking or particularly good looking, but it was a lot of fun and I just kept going! Crochet gave me such a sense of satisfaction, I\u2019ve been proud of everything \u2013 even the failures that taught me a lot.<\/p>\n<p><strong>LB: When did you decide to start a yarn craft blog?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When my youngest went off to preschool, I knew it was time to start something of my own.

My \u201cbaby blanket\u201d was more like a sad, rejected fishing net. I still have no idea what I was actually doing to get the result I did\u2026.
