Chablis looks great in your masterpiece. I love to learn new things. Right now, I'm working and learning "street Spanish" which blends Portuguese and Spanish. I'm off to a great start, I know all the curse words. This after an employee told me to "Eat $hit and die" and I THANKED him for that. I had no idea? <br />Have fun with your new interest, go wild, make thousands, sell them on eBay, go Internationale with distribution and become a millionaire! But, have fun.....Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12644093093592973511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2687899793433885679.post-53272363837641252822012-03-07T06:41:09.823-06:002012-03-07T06:41:09.823-06:00Thanks for sharing that tutorial website!

Now I'm working on a shawl/sweater thing that was in the free patterns at Jo-Ann's :) It is taking me forever - I just added in skein number 4 last night and need to work on my gauge, too - I had to make my chain 20 stitches longer just to make it the right width at the bottom.Shore Debrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10041565504692473680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2687899793433885679.post-69043408394071913482012-03-06T23:16:34.821-06:002012-03-06T23:16:34.821-06:00You did a nice job!!

I'll have to bookmark those tutorials for future use (I don't even have time to keep up with the blogs right now).<br /><br />My mom taught me how to crochet and knit (at least the basics) oh so long ago I can't quite remember when! I must have been 15-16... I was in my creative with thread phase... the only things I ever managed to complete were a weird scarf for one of my stuffed dogs and several cross-stitch patterns that are framed and hanging somewhere. I've often wished I had taken it more seriously and taken it further... I love the idea of hand-made sweaters, scarfs, hats, blankets... But then my mom isn't very good at it either! She's a clear case of taste/talent for a thing skipping generations since she's always hated anything to do with sewing although her mother was a dress-maker and her grandfather a tailor (the only one available for three whole towns!). She did enjoy (once upon a time) crocheting because it reminded her of her grandmother who did some beautiful crochet work... I vaguely remember a summer dress I had as a child with a flowery blue skirt and a white crochet bustier (right word? think what would be above an empire waist, for a child). My great-grandmother did the crochet part and my grandmother put it together in the dress. I need to look for pictures of those dresses...<br /><br />Keep on practising!!! Chablis is lucky you've taken an interest! (and your future grandkids will also love it)CrazyCrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17512240982215608638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2687899793433885679.post-34899380617607791142012-03-06T03:55:58.752-06:002012-03-06T03:55:58.752-06:00Awesome!
