International Crochet Day!
Posted By Liz on September 12, 2012
Now, I know you know I dont need an excuse but.
Today is apparently international crochet day.
So, Have you ever tried? No? Then I recommend today you have a go. Grab a stick (hook) and some string (yarn) and have a go, what if you found like me this is something you wish you had done sooner, and more over something that really you can be you at?
Some basic stitches covered by my fave people explaining: http://www.nexstitch.com/v_crochet_videos.html
Done that? Want to try other things, how about tunisian? http://www.nexstitch.com/v_Tutorials.html
There are also more youtube crochet videos than you can ever need. If you wish to learn something and you cant find it, ask me, I might know where you can find it.
Tamzins blanket day 2
Posted By Liz on September 9, 2012
Ok. Today I did you a picture showing the front and the back. The front is the bit with the small squares and the horizontal lines. I only managed 6 rows! I did say this maybe a slow grower right? I had to undo a bit as its hard to place rows on this because there’s 2 rows to every row. So I got confused somewhere and it wasn’t coming out right so I undid 3 rows. even though on re doing them they came out the same I had to be sure I was doing it right.
Quite worried I haven’t ordered enough wool. I’ve already gone through 2 balls.
