As you may know, I have been wanting to learn to knit and crochet for the longest time now. I had bought the I Can’t Believe I’m Crocheting DVD, as well as The Complete Beginner’s Guide To Knitting DVD.
A few weeks ago, I finally got around to trying out the knitting DVD. There is hope for me, after all! But after taking a look at the crocheting DVD, I decided that I would devote myself to learning crochet pretty well first, before moving on to knitting.
The DVD was based on a book by the same name. I think it would help a lot if I had that book to go with the DVD. Since there is no discount on Amazon for it, I’m just going to go ahead and buy it at Michaels, so I will have it right away. Besides, the DVD calls for a size I crochet hook, and I don’t have one. So I will pick one of those up, as well, as the light-colored yarn they recommend.
And then I will try to devote a little time each day to working with the book and the DVD. I really want to actually be able to make stuff someday, soon!
I also need to pick up some more computer memory; that will make it easier to watch the many instructional videos that are online. Sometimes this old ‘puter runs a bit slow, and I need to do something about it!
Anyhoo, I will try to keep you posted on my progress, complete with pics of my sloppy work!
