3rd Miracle

Yes that's right a 3rd miracle has occurred!!!! I have finally taught myself to crochet!!!!! After years of my sister, Diane, (who is an amazing crocheter and knitter) telling me "to give it a try" and "it's not as hard as it looks", I brought a little book on how to crochet, a hook and some wool and well..... I CAN CROCHET!!!!!

This is my first square....




Then I got hooked (ha ha) and have decided to make Samantha a blanket for her bed...


Then I decided to give a hat a try and this is the finished product...



I then gave making a flower a go, so added that to the hat as well....


I am really enjoying it and can't believe I wasted so many good crochet years saying "it's to hard" and giving up. Well Diane I should have listened to you after all shouldn't I. Note to self....Listen to your big sister!!!!

O.M.G!!!!! Beautiful work, you clever little sister! I can't believe you made a hat and a flower as well as those squares (can I have a copy of the square pattern? - it's a bit different to mine)Love Sam's hat, she looks so cute in it. You'll have to make yourselves 'mother and daughter' outfits now!!!!

Love you to bits P! xxxxxxxxxxxxx D
