Cut my hair....
Trimmed the beard.....
Had a shower......
Almost back to the land of the living......
Apart from a really crappy Ealing comedy i endured today, that's enough action for one day!
Here, as a world premiere, is my first piece of crochet..... i only learned this week, so this is literally my learning, sample, first piece..... i know it looks a bit ropey but you get the idea....... it's not meant to be anything other than learning how to do the stitches.....

Well, I am impressed with your crocheting. Not something I have ever done. Could you make me a beige cardigan with leather buttons? Brown kid leather elbow patches would also be good.
ReplyDeletespoken like a true teacher!
DeleteGreat start at crocheting! I never learned to crochet, although I did learn basic knitting skills when I was an adolescent. My first knitting project (slippers) was an utter, utter disaster.
ReplyDeletethanks..... not sure i'll ever crochet anything useful or any sort of item..... but i've almost got it worked out now..... at least the basic bits
DeleteMy daughter learned to crochet via youtube and I have several lovely scarves with slightly wonky edges. She's currently working on a blanket.
ReplyDeleteit's the wonky edges that make them "craft" of course...... the wealth of material available on youtube is staggering isn't it
DeleteKeep it up, the craftwork I mean. First attempts always show certain faults. But it helps, whether knitting or crocheting, to calm the mind.
ReplyDeleteonce i worked out how to hold everything..... like how it works for ME specifically.... it wasn't too stressy..... might take a well before it's "relaxing" though
DeleteI am VERY impressed. I have never been able to get the hang of crocheting.
ReplyDeletecan't say i've ever actually thought about it before but it's not too difficult.... takes a while working out how to hold the yarn..... hold your work..... what the tensions should feel like..... it's all practice innit
DeleteOne step at a time
ReplyDeleteI’m learning that my dear friend
Soon have your own Etsy shop!
