After having been doing crochet for a few weeks, I am now churning out finished projects! I get my love of crafts from my mum, who is an avid stitcher (embroidery and general sewing) but one skill she hadn’t acquired was crochet. Since I seemed to be progressing quickly, I was nominated as teacher! My Mum decided that she wanted to make this throw (not an easy design for someone who has never picked up the hook or someone who has never taught anyone!) However, miraculously, it is progressing pretty well!
Here is my Mum’s first ever crochet attempt:
Although she missed out three stitches on the third round, she is still very happy with it and has now completed three of the fourteen squares in this design!

I love to crochet! I once almost got detained in the Hong Kong airport for having a crochet needle in my handcarry. 😐 That took A LOT of explaining. Anyway, I told you you’d be first on my list. 🙂
I nominated you for the Versatile Blogger Award.

Haha I can imagine they would cause problems! Ooh thank you so much!
She did great and in no time she’ll have a beautiful throw to show for all your helpful teachings 🙂
She did! She’s naturally an arty person so I’m sure that in no time her skills will surpass mine! It will look great though! Me and my Mum bough some paper in those colours to decorate the spare room (without asking my Dad and brother 😉 ) so once it is all done we will have a nice girly room that I am hoping will become a craft room!
