I have been thinking of learning to crochet for ages and this week the stars aligned
Pip over at Meet me at Mikes has spent ages putting a set of lessons together so even a total beginner can learn how to do a granny square, there are detailed written instructions and videos to follow so you can't go wrong! So I've been grannying like mad!
These are my ice cream grannies using some cotton handknit that I bought ages ago, it's nice to use but some of them are a bit wonky and the ' holes' seem quite big. I might use a smaller hook than suggested next time to see if that helps and hopefully my tension will improve as I make more of them.
So THANK YOU Pip!! That's one of my goals for 2010 underway and it's not even the end of January yet, the other goals of improving my health and fitness - well I've still got 11 months to work on those!
