My Grandmother taught me (she raised me singly) and i went into too cool to crochet in jr high, so I only learned basic stitches, basically beaded bracelets and granny square afghans is all I can make. I only can work with yarn, not thread, but I'm 27, and my mentor passed in '05. Im reteaching myself and hope to be able to make all the things she could make with accuracy, good tension, and precision. The patterns seem so hard to read! I just picked it back up about 3months ago. I am making an afghan that is 3colors with red heart super saver yarn. Tea leaf, orchid, and coffee. It's gonna be queen sized for the bedand my biggest crochet project to this date. It will go on the bed when completed (the man disagrees lol!), but its gonna happen! Thinking about entering it in the county fair next year. Im shy though, so not sure yet. See how it looks when its done :-) Theresxalready a couple boo boos I cant seem to figure out the mysteries to
but hey, its a learning process
