Alis girls Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 can;t get 1st copy and I dont want to subscribe in case I am hopeless. A friend who is craft minded couldnt do the crochet for love or money so I';d love to be able to do it. Oneupmanship - how sad is that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falkor Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Ahem!!! This thread has a distinct lack of pictures...come on people let us see your crochet efforts!!!

chickencam Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 We bought all of the first flush of issues of the knitting version of this at least £200 worth, therefore although i would love to learn to crochet i will be holding off from this one. My YD had the knitting one in lieu of pocket money for nearly 2 years, she loves to knit, aminly scarves and hats. One day I will have a go at some of the projects. We were annoyes at what we thought was the end of the run it continued into another run, we called it a halt at that point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted January 15, 2010 Author Share Posted January 15, 2010 I'll show you all mine tomorrow. However, most of mine are from my book 200 crochet blocks. I did a bobble one yesterday, which I love. Pics tomorrow. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parsley Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 My practice square looked distinctly triangular.... . The treble crochet got a bit more square like as it was easier to see where the end of the previous row was. I quite fancied doing the scarf out of issue 1 but had a shock at the price of the wool .

Cooks Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 I have been getting better and better with my double crochet and slip stitch I am quite pleased with myself. Just have to make up some squares when I finish some charity squares for the other thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 I cannot get issue one anywhere - have tried googling back issues but keep getting american sites - any ideas anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 if you subscribe you can opt it to start from number 1, I think, other than that I am unsure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
