My friend Janine blogs at Rainbow Hare and is a keen knitter and crochet-er, and runs a linkie every Sunday.
I very rarely link up as I don't (can't) knit, but I can crochet one stitch if someone can cast on for me. A while ago the lovely Carolyn at church started me off for some fingerless gloves. She felt I was ready to progress to a new stitch, but I ended up with this, so clearly I wasn't ready!
She very patiently started me off again, and I now have this:
It needs to be much longer and then I need to do the same again for the other hand, but these will be perfect to driving to school in the autumn / winter when the car is cold and I'm waiting for it to heat up!
(Do you like my ergonomic crochet hook - made with two packs of Sugru - I love that stuff!)

ReplyDeleteCongrats! I was so excited to you had linked up today :) Now you've got going I'm sure you'll have them finished in no time and they'll be perfect for driving in the Winter :)
ReplyDeleteThat's one stitch you have learnt! So good what you have done so far! And they will be lovely and warm mittens for driving! And love the crochet hook!
ReplyDeletelike you I struggle with crochet, following the instructions baffles me and I find I can no longer knit due to finger joints, you have done well and they will be great as you say when driving, when I had a car I could never wear gloves as did not feel in control!
