Once I had the technique I took a few classes at a knitting shop here in Tga which was brilliant. A large granny square blanket would be a great first project- once you get the hang of it it'll be easy as as you are just repeating the stitches till you're finished. I started making individual granny squares for a blanket about 3 years ago, I made about 3/4 of what I needed to (about 75 I think) and then I just stopped and haven't touched them since, really need to do the last 25!! Happy crocheting :)Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09837365666448298169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7423948220428039280.post-52816998310234908872013-10-12T19:35:20.126+13:002013-10-12T19:35:20.126+13:00I've only just learnt basic crochet myself.

I made my first washcloth for a swap and I really enjoyed it.<br />Crochet is much quicker and more satisfying than knitting I think.<br />Youtube videos are such a help when learning a new stitch or technique, I wouldn't have known how to start without watching videos over and over.<br />xZarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09577592390723365734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7423948220428039280.post-37455243864837551772013-10-12T19:07:25.420+13:002013-10-12T19:07:25.420+13:00You learn't from You tube!?
