Right now I am working on a scarf, you can find the free pattern here. I am thinking, that I probably have the wrong yarn for this project or the wrong hook, since it feels a little stiff. Also trying to learn to crochet small lace shawls for the dolls that I am currently working on. Do you have any suggestions for a book with small projects for dolls? Pinterest always has lovely ideas, specially the Japanese patterns, I like that they always include a diagram of the pattern, since I am a visual learner, I find it easier to follow like that. A friend come over and tried to teach me little tricks and different stitches on knitting...friends are gifts that keeps on giving.
The books that I am currently reading are: "West from Home" letters from Laura Ingalls Wilder to her husband Almanzo while visiting her daughter Rose in San Francisco 1915. Here is a little quote from the book" ...The more I see the city life the more I love the country..." a girl after my own heart indeed. Also reading "Torches of Joy" a stone age tribe's encounter with the gospel. It is amazing when there isn't any distractions how much one can learn, the Dani people of Irian Jaya are quite amazing.Joining Yarn Along
Such a pretty stitch, you may find when you wash it that it relaxes a little.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I hope so, good thing I like the color.
Deletelove your flowers! and the colorway of the yarn is so nice
ReplyDeleteThanks, I love flowers, makes everything so pretty.
DeleteThat is a very good job you're doing. I have not learned to follow a chart pattern, but it's on my list of challenges for myself this year. There are so many wonderful patterns that are chart only.
