Why “Gaming” with Yarn?

My boyfriend (Erick) is a gaming enthusiast. His games of choice are computer RPG games, and console video games; though, more recently, he has moved away from console games.

We live in a one bedroom apartment with our five pets: June Bug and Sasha (our dogs), R2 and Freckle (our birds), and Ned (our tortoise). I stay at home, and care for our family while writing blogs, knitting and crocheting for my local church, and writing knitting patterns from home. Erick works in home improvement.

Now you know enough about us for me to get to the meat and potatoes. This blog centers on how my arts and crafts fit into our lives as a family and what they add to it, and to our community.

I named this blog “Gaming With Yarn” because that’s how I look at my projects, as entertaining pastimes that have a story to tell and an adventure to share.

Those adventures may not be the same Smash! Bang! Adventure that are video or computer or even tabletop RPG games, but I like to think there is adventure there just the same. And there is the element of play too. There’s a lot of playing with colors and textures, and a lot of similar technical decisions that can be very fun to navigate through and challenging to pull off. It’s all in how you look at the world of gaming with yarn.
