busy day
Hi everyone I seem to have had one of those busy days without achieving a great deal - or that is how it feels. Strange really. Tomorrow I have one of my crochet workshops & the last time the group met they decided they wanted a project rather than just keep learning stitches. So, one of the ladies had a pattern for a crocheted bag that she fancied doing - just a small one. Everyone liked the look of it so the decision was made. Tomorrow they start on it - so today I thought I had better make sure that the pattern is OK as it was a freebie & sometimes they can contain errors. It appears to be OK & grows quite quick - it uses a stitch called basket weave which is quite interesting as you work around stitches on a previous row. Anyway I did a sample run in ordinary DK wool to check I could do the pattern OK myself. This is what it looks like It is very effective - but has taken its toll on my right wrist & thumb. Good old Art...
