Check it out!!

I am sooo very excited about this! Last night at the Women's night, it was Craft Night. I chose to try chroche! It was a two hour session, and the first hour I had just about given up. But I am stubborned-will, and determined to figure things out that I can't / don't get - those who know me well, know this about me - I'm just a nerd like that, I guess! So anywho, the first hour I'm using my fingernails to get this yarn to loop through this small hook thingie, and I'm wondering how in the world this could be relaxing to anyone?!?! ~Marquita! I'm becoming more tense and frustrated as I go along.

Finally after a good hour of fighting with this thing, I catch on! And wha-la!! Check it out!

I'm making a scarf!

I'll be sure to show the final product!!

  1. I learned to do crochet when i was nine years old and i really find it a relaxing and art experience. I love Kneeting, and i also think that it's great to do things by oneself instead of buying serial products to wear made with no emotion.
    But i recognized that it is a very hard work to do the first steps in crochet. But when you got the the result is beautifull!

    I hope to see the finished scarf, good Luck! and keep on! Never quit! Being stubborn sometimes is a gift.
