Well done, missus...Yaaaaaaaaaaaaay for the crochet!<br />Well done, missus- your granny square looks very professional indeed!<br />My advice would be to keep this special one as a reminder of where you began- make it into a cute coaster (as you suggested) and every time you use it you can remember where your crochet journey began!<br />But also, make loads more of them! A blanket would be a lovely idea.- the colours you chose are lovely.<br />They'll be no stopping you now.....<br />Have a great week.<br />XxAnnaboo's Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08114896681029080504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3783646601905827137.post-81874752786949195652012-04-15T19:20:17.039+02:002012-04-15T19:20:17.039+02:00hey - sorry to hear you're feeling poorly - ho...hey - sorry to hear you're feeling poorly - hope you feel more chipper soon.<br />Now, I only learnt how to crochet last year - and the thing that made the biggest difference to me was thatover Christmas I sat and tried loads of different things from the book 'happy hooker'. I got into some real pickles, got cross, got all tied up....but after a couple of days something just clicked and it all fell into place. Now I totally get it - and can follow a pattern and everything! the book just seemed to explain it really well. I think if I'd just kept coming back to it every now and then it would have taken me years.<br />Anyway - keep it up - it's SO satisfying!<br />love fee xfee @ chipper nellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03413221467666029415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3783646601905827137.post-65906156527350560852012-04-13T21:44:36.810+02:002012-04-13T21:44:36.810+02:00Hurrah Carly!

I keep looking at all the amazing projects on various blogs and I simply wonder 'how on earth do they manage that?'<br /><br />I am so sorry to read you have been poorly. Do you find you feel low when ill? I have enjoyed reading your previous posts - I have been a rather absent from the bloggersphere recently - and I loved the beautiful photos of spring flowers. When I see the Rhein I can't help but notice how similar it seems to the Loire river where we live.<br /><br />Big hug to you and I hope the antibiotics kick in very, very soon.<br /><br />Stephaniemillefeuilleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14608950213999238191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3783646601905827137.post-86540022325716236402012-04-13T20:58:08.401+02:002012-04-13T20:58:08.401+02:00Hello chicklet,

I have no idea about it, I would tie myself in knots. <br />I think Of Bees and Mist is sort of similar to the Night Circus. I reckon you will like it. Did you ever read 'Jonathon Strange and Mr Norrell'? That is all magical and lovely too, quite long though. I also like 'HerFearful Symmetry' by Audrey Niffenegger. Lots of people slagged it off but I really liked it.<br />Keep resting and taking care of yourself. I wish I as there to make you soup.<br />Hugs, TracyTracy Gloverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01241249836621046253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3783646601905827137.post-45665802239214817192012-04-13T17:49:06.460+02:002012-04-13T17:49:06.460+02:00Hello Carly, I missed a couple of your post as for...Hello Carly, I missed a couple of your post as forgot to put you on my blog roll.....ooops now you are there, and so sorry to here you are poorly thats rotten, really hope you are better soon. well done on the Granny square, still haven't learnt to crochet...maybe one day, take care lovely<br />Sophie xxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13831452606024076452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3783646601905827137.post-65757441718571560062012-04-13T11:33:31.426+02:002012-04-13T11:33:31.426+02:00Hi Carly,

Do continue to take good care of yourself and rest! I love your granny square!!! You did a beautiful job! I am so glad your mother-in-law could show you what to do! I always learn best when someone can show me. Then, as you said, the books and videos make sense! I am teaching myself to crochet with the Cute and Easy Crochet book. I love her darling projects and I must say her instructions are very well written! I look forward to improving and need to get a new project going! I think you should make more squares and make a cushion! It would be so cheerful and cosy too! Have fun sweet friend and keep crocheting!
