oh my goodness, i can crochet!


Since Brown Owls quite a few weeks back, I have been attempting to crochet. There's been tears, tantrums and now FINALLY triumph! I finished my very first granny square last night and if you can't already tell, am very proud of myself. Now will have to take a trip to the wool shop and pick up some pretty wool (unlike the one above) to make a crochet blankie.

Well done, Danielle! I wish I could crochet too (disaster waiting to happen in my case). Looking forward to seeing your blankie when it's finished :)

That looks fantastic. I can't wait to see your blanket grow. Crochet is definitely addictive.

Great work Danielle. I have never got the hang of crocheting not for the want of trying. I find it really difficult to hold the wool and feel at ease while working. I did make a scarf last year but nothing since.

Thanks for the lovely comment about my Nana's wooden spoon, it sure is loved.
