Love it. If I have enough patience, I might try that. It probably takes a lot longer than imagined.

Love this idea, something to do a bit of in between other projects maybe and a good yarn buster.

Absolutely. I think they are just very long octopus tentacles!

Hello you lovely bunch.
I am doing my first Fayre tomorrow, I have a freaky friend coming with me and as well as attempting to sell my jewellery I will be trying to sell some resin jewellery made by another friend who can't join us due to her elderly border collie needing her.
Julie and I will also be doing some psychic stuff as well......so although I am bricking it a little, I am also looking forward too it.

Don't giive up. Persevere. I kept trying and trying. Still not an expert but can bluff my way through to make things. X

Some things always appear impossible until you do them.

No you aren’t being delusional mind you when Pam started this thread I decided to give it a go (I did crochet in my late teens but that was all forgotten)
I really found it hard to pick it up again and can’t remember how many times I nearly threw the lot across the room but I persevered and all of a sudden it clicked into place.
I hate following patterns and quite often do my own thing.
Give it a go

I used a YouTube video to learn. I found a project I wanted to make and went from there. It was a boho granny square poncho by annoo in case you’re interested, just 4 squares that you join together so simple. Once I’d finished that I gradually taught myself to read patterns and much later charts. I’ve been hooking for 2 years now.

Ooooh don't give up! If i can do it....... lol
An easy pattern to start with would help and a do some practice runs with a smaller amount of stitches - that may help too, it grows quickly and can be very addictive!

I’ve never been able to crochet either but might give it another go when I’ve got all the Christmas presents out of the way. I think following a YouTube video is the way to go. I think some wool shops will give 1:1 lessons. I’ve found one , it’s the other side of Totnes from me so a bit of a drive, that charges £10 an hour.

I found the you tube videos good as you can stop them and go back if you are unsure.

My daughter complained a few months ago that I didn’t have her baby blanket ( she’s 46, I’ve moved to different countries twice). My mother crocheted it for her—- only thing she ever made her and I had the idea to try and copy it from memory. I think she’d started in the centre, made it into a square and then just kept going until it was about 1 metre x 1 metre. She’d used up oddments of wool I think as it wasn’t traditional baby colours, quite a lot of dark grey and blue. Possible, do you think ?

 

[The Dobbsters]

Hollyberry definitely have a go at that ! Children can always find a stick to beat you with no matter how old they are can't they ? lol

This is one that I made last year. No pattern so it is a bit wonky but it is basically I dc I chain all the way round with 2 dc 2 chains in the corners.
