I'm back! A gazillion posts to do - so let's get started! Firstly crochet - and as Spring is upon us I made a Springtime Wreath (pattern available at the lovely Attic 24 ). It was very easy to follow the pattern I have to say and I still consider myself a beginner, not bad for an afternoon's work (obviously not work at all)
My mum gave me a little vintage crochet book and a new one for my birthday and there are quite a few things I would love to make from each -crocheting tastes haven't changed so much since the 1960s have they!?
I am also making two blankets, one I started last year in time for Christmas (HA!) - maybe this year's hey? I dip into it from time to time, but we are not in a serious relationship and enter each others lives on a random basis. The other is far more committed and for another post - lots of sunshine squares - its going to be amazing - I hope?
More posts to come. I hope you haven't forgotten about me ? I still love all your blogs and as usual they keep me smiling!

Hi,

Nice to see you back!

I learned to crochet from the first book you show; no, not in the 60's! It was about 10 or so years ago and I had been trying to learn unsuccessfully for about 10 years. We didn't have internet access then, and as crochet wasn't popular then, I didn't find anything much to teach me until a friend who did house clearances gave that booklet to me.
