Connection

For years I have tried to learn crochet. I've had people try to teach me. I've read books. I've seen videos. Nothing ever clicked. I still kept trying, though, in hopes that eventually I'd get it. AND I DID! Randomly, a couple of weeks ago, something connected between my hands and my brain, and it worked. I don't know what made the difference, but look what I made:

I make lots of mistakes, but that's part of the process. I'm just glad it finally connected for me!

I got the pattern from Crochet in Color. I like her blog because she has a ton of pictures and lots of patterns.  She also has links to other sites, which are handy.  Anyway, now that I have started to figure it out, I hope to make lots of fun stuff--for me and for friends :)

Like I need a hobby or something. lol
