Just finishing a white sparkly crystal waves blanket.
I've just received the attic24 yuletide kit.

I've got so much yarn it's taking over 🙄😊😊🙊

The amount of wool I have is ridiculous

I’m not very good at knitting but have knitted some basic stuff in the past, I found it kept my hands busy and out of the biscuit tin during the dark winter nights.

I knitted some Fairisle style Christmas cushion covers in 2019 and ended up with tennis elbow for 18 months so I’m a bit wary of knitting again. It maybe wasn’t the knitting that caused it but it certainly wasn’t tennis, that’s for sure!

I am in awe of the amazing knitting and crochet skills of fellow dibbers, the work that must go in to these projects is amazing

You all seem to be very clever. Is it easy to crochet? I would love to try but I haven’t got a clue. I can’t knit either!

I started by watching Bella Coco youtube videos.

Start with a chunky wool and a large hook. Its easier to learn the process with those.

And just keep practicing and it becomes second nature 🙂

Thanks, I’ll take a look. Do you think a blanket is too optimistic for a beginner?

I’ve just bought the wool for a baby shawl I’ll be taking it to Antigua and Florida and I’ll be visiting my favorite wool store when in Florida for one of their afternoon tea chat and knitting/ crochet slots

I’m left handed (very left handed). I watched Bella Coco u tube videos and started with a blanket from attic 24 (kit with good instructions) (started and finished it !)

My two left handed sons can sew and knit my left handed mum taught them it looks so so awkward to me ( never mind them using a knife or scissors) our right handed son can’t even sew a button on
