Today I learnt how to crochet! It's been taking me a while with some very massive tantrums (Yes, seriously, ask my house mates...) I get angry with myself if I can't do something it's a major flaw of mine...
I met someone on the National Express route to Cheltenham and she was knitting, so I decided to get my knitting out. We formed a bond and she's teaching me all sorts of life skills! And today, after spending 4 hours with her I produced this:
I am pretty impressed with myself! I'm going to make loads of these and make them into a blanket, at the rate I'm going I'll be finished by the time they go on my knees at 68. I'm a bit slow at it... But I'm getting there, this one is finished now and I'm onto my pink one! I am mega excited at the idea of a blanket that I have made!
I also bought a knitting pattern to make a 'Tank Top' style jumper for my Father, for Christmas. Yes, I'm so sorry for mentioning the C word, I didn't mean to swear. But It's going to take me AGES! And therefore I need the time! It's going to be so strange making something that isn't a scarf. But I will be very pleased if it works out and not to mention I'll have a very proud father.
What creative adventures have you been up to?!
