Jan 2012. Here I am proudly showing off my first ever attempt at crocheting. I've come a long way in a year and a half! LOL Crocheting has become my all-time favourite hobby since then. I can tell you in complete honesty now that I'm pretty sure I can crochet anything. Yes, I mean ANYTHING. But here's why I wanted to start a blog: There was a time (a long period of time) where I thought I was a pretty good crocheter (is that a word?) and I could make anything IF (big IF) I could find a pattern for it. There's a pattern for just about everything out there, but most good patterns cost money. I cannot even begin to describe the frustration of not being able to find a good free pattern! This is my solution for anyone out there who shares my sentiments: Now that I am not bound by the restraints of following patterns (I can pretty much just pick up my hook and wool, and make anything I want); I've started writing them down; even taking pictures now and then of my work in progress, and I plan to post all of my patterns FOR FREE for anyone who would like to use them! So please Enjoy! :)
:) You give me hope! I'm going to buy some hooks today and start your granny square pattern with the hope of one day making my boy a blanket. We'll see :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome! If you send me your email I can send you the link to the videotape tutorials I used. I found them on pinterest; they were so great! Good luck :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I just started a couple of months ago and I doubt I will be as good as you are in just a year! Yes, I hate buying patterns only to realize they are too hard for me or I can't understand the instructions, so thank you for posting free ones!
