I tried chrocheting once... It failed.
I also tried knitting... It did not fail as bad. The problem with knitting is that it was very hard for me to advance. I got the basic knit and purl stitches down pretty well (as long as they were in separate rows), but all the fancy stitching and cabelling and knitting-in-the-round? NIGHTMARE. I just couldn't do it. So here I am, with ten years knitting experience under my belt, and I can STILL only knit things in straight blocks. This limits me to scarves, and potholders. Which, lets be honest... Who really wants a potholder made out of cheap yarn? Not me.
Anyway, this post is about crocheting. I came upon a blog post on "crochet 101" and decided to give it another try. I sat down with a hook and some yarn in hand, and instantly fell in love. I'm now currently working on a blanket and I'll take some pictures along the way to show you my progress!
Do you have something that you gave up on that you'd like to try again? What is it?
