Crocheting

So, I was serious about learning how to make those little crochet guys. Last Wednesday I went to my lovely and talented Aunt Trea's house and she taught me some basics. It was a rough start (I was doing it so tight I broke my hook right away), but here is the first attempt. Hint: it's supposed to be square.




Last night, 8 days later, I finished this little guy. 


So, while crocheting is slow starting, it has a steep learning curve and it's SOOOO addicting.

Good hint. I would have NEVER guessed it. And I love your little guy. Agreed, it is very addicting. Good work!

Hee hee hee! I told you you were going to outstrip my skills in like five seconds. I totally called it.

And it's adorable. If Anna ever loses interest in it, I want it....um, for our next child...

Wow! Good for you! You are actually very talented at doing things with your hands. I can't believe how quickly you progressed from beginner to creator.
