Crochet anyone? :)

Taszia · 27-06-2012, 09:38 AM

this may sound really sad but i am stuck on bed rest for a week before i am checked again and then maybe another long boring weekl after that !
so i found this and i am thinking of giving it a go after a bit of practice as i have not ever done any before .

But thought this was the cutest thing ever !

I've made 3 of those, first attempt was hilarious( think I posted a pic on here somewhere) second tow I made as presents for my Mum and Stepdad for Christmas - I'd forgotten all about that till I saw your thread, Taszia

It's a great way to keep yourself occupied, looking forward to seeing the finished result!

I've never quite got to grips with crochet. I can knit anything you want but crochet is just something I can't do.

i have heard it is a bit easier but never done either only ever done weaving

Snap! I have knitted quite complicated patterns & really used to enjoy it but I havent mastered crochet, I cant turn a corner & end up with circles or triangles instead of squares!

Like the pattern by the way
