I'm trying to learn something new. The old saying says you can't teach an old dog new tricks. Since my new skill isn't going so well, how do they define old...?
Sister A (the one NOT in Thailand) is trying to teach me to crochet via google video chat. That's hard. Which string do I go through? What do you mean two on top? How many threads do YOU see? So with some help from her, some dozens (yes, DOZENS) of hours trying to read patterns, and a few local friends I just remembered could crochet... I am learning.
How's it going?
Um. We've got:
One red pot holder King says is useless. Something about burning his fingers through the holes.
One red scarf. NOT useless.... just very skinny so I wouldn't spend all year making it.
One HUGE beanie- it was supposed to be beautiful. That's not the first word that comes to mind when you see it... and no, you probably won't be seeing it.
One half started beanie number 2- since I learned a LOT on the first try- we're giving it another round. Ask me in a week or two how its comin...
