Something new

I have so many things that I could / should be doing,
Like what is on my little table in the lounge

I will show you the top bit as it the only part that is completely finished.

But, instead I am going to try my hand at this.

Crochet.
I have never been able pick it up and I also can't knit.
Barb has been very kind and agreed to give me a lesson at our next
Mill Rosie get together in a few weeks.

So in an attempt to save Barbs sanity I am going
to arm myself with a few YouTube tutorials
I am going to do my best to pick up some basics.
Wish me luck!

Hugs, Sharon

  1. Good luck, I have never mastered crochet either. I made a baby blanket with hubby's grandma watching every stitch, and haven't done it since.

  5. Oh you will be fine - I'm a lefty and was taught by righties at the young age of 8. So if I can do it by copying backwards, you can do it! If you happen to be a lefty then we need to talk ;)
