Wow! Knitting in and of itself is challenging (I can barely make a decent scarf lol), socks are like pro-level, and striped socks? That match!? That’s like wizardry. Good job TPM!! 👏 Love the colors too!

Those are fab, tweetiepiesmom! Morgan calling it wizardry reminds me of something I read where a guy was saying his wife was a witch, because she sits there waving two wands, reading spells from a spellbook, and suddenly, BOOM!, blanket.

I've decided to learn how to crochet. I've seen so many patterns for things I'd like to make. I'm starting with a simple shawl. If I'm not too embarrassed by how it turns out, I'll post a picture.

Enjoy your crocheting and we all have to start somewhere. I find it relaxing. Start with an easy pattern and I am sure you will be ok…..

Good for you. My friend decided to teach herself to crochet a couple of years ago and wow, she picked it up so quickly and became quite addicted. She used the most gorgeous ombré yarn and was making shawls/wraps/scarves for everyone. I’m sure you’ll love it. I’ve never taken to knitting or crochet, preferring to stitch instead. I cross stitch by choice but can embroider and hand-sew most things but put me in front of a sewing machine and I’d be lost. I’ll try and find photos of the one she made me and also for my daughter. They’re gorgeous and my daughter’s is sparkly too. Cost her a fortune in mailing them from Australia but there’s something special knowing a gift has been handcrafted especially for you.

tweetiepiesmom Very pretty 😍 ladybird those look gorgeous! My mom loves sewing, knitting and crochet.. I've never gained interest however 🙈 I did try knitting a sweater once but left midway.. I learnt embroidery as a kid, but never did it again.. I find these things a hobby of the talented ones.. You need imagination, color combination sense and accuracy to turn it into a pretty one. Not my cup of tea though!
