In The Beginning

Was Costco. A friend took us to one in San Francisco when we got there on Saturday 21 November 2015 after SES's work conference at Las Vegas.

At Costco I picked up Star Wars Crochet by Lucy Collins, a crochet kit that came with an instruction book, a 3.5mm crochet hook, two pairs of safety eyes, a tapestry needle, and enough yarn to make a Yoda and a stormtrooper.



It was USD11.99, a steal as I afterwards found out when we saw it at Kinokuniya a bookstore in Singapore for SGD43.

I thought it would be good holiday fun for the two older kids who were fourteen and twelve at the time. When I actually opened the kit and looked through the book, I realized it was going to be way too difficult for them, so I took it upon myself to use the kit.
