 the most basic of flower patterns and most were wonky (just look at that purple one!)

my head has been turned by another project... found here on Attic24...

oh dear...

crochet 2nd sample

For a while now I've wanted to learn how to crochet - I really like the stitch pattern and I've seen some lovely crocheted toy patterns.  My first sample was way back in January 2010 (a year!!!)

The Woolly Brew is creating a beginning crochet kit (not just for me!) and whilst compiling Karen's instructions (she does crochet) I've picked up my hook again...

This is all in double crochet.  I still have the same problem with losing stitches at the start of rows which I think I can rectify by taking abit more care.

I feel more comfortable with the whole process though - I can see how the stitch is constructed now and my tension is better.   I hope its because of the wonderful instructions Karen and I have compiled!

Now onto treble...
