Ok so today I wake up determined, I WILL learn to crochet, I WILL NOT let that little hook beat me lol. Oh dear I have been in a bit of a pickle though. Its holding the yarn right that gets me. I have realised that if I put the yarn in my right hand then im am away very fast and find that easy but the tension is not good. If I use my left hand for yarn then im a bit slow and even awkward but the tension is right.
I have put the granny square on hold
Hmmm not quite there, but it will be good to look back at this if I ever progress ;)
Oh the trebles are great though..
I can kind of do them, prehaps a blanket for my dog? with my practising squares. Hmmm or a dolly blanket for my girls never ending supply of dollies?
Oh well at least I am having lots of well earned crochet breaks
Me and the kids had a little baking fun, crochet may have not been mastered yet but the pavlova was yummy!
Have a happy weekend
Love Paula x
You'll crack it, took me agaes and I think the friend who was teaching me was about to give up on me, but then the crafty side of your brain just goes 'yep, that's it' bingo!!
Have a lovely week.
