I decided recently that I wanted to learn to crochet. A few weeks ago I came across a craft book that I have had for many years and had forgotten about. In flipping through it, I found a lot of great things I would like to make, but over half of the book involved crocheting or knitting. So I decided I would learn to crochet and promptly bought supplies and set out on this endeavor. I will post soon about my (mis)adventures in crocheting. Now, I have joked to a few people as I am crocheting that I have turned into an old lady, but have not said that to my daughters.
Last night the girls and I called my mom to wish her a Happy Birthday. During the conversation Kinsley told her grandma that her mom was sewing like an old lady, except that old ladies use two needles instead of one. OH MY! It's official, my daughter thinks I'm old. I tried to overlook the statement, and correct her in saying, two needles is kitting, I'm crocheting, but what I really wanted to scream is "I'm not an OLD LADY!"

I would love to learn both crochet and knit...!!
Brooke - several ladies that I work with crochet and knit and they recommended starting with crocheting, they said it's much easier. I printed off directions from the Lions Brand Yarn website, which surprisingly were pretty easy to follow. I also picked up a book that had instructions and a couple projects. It was frustrating at first, but it is getting much easier, and it so RELAXING!
