Found a friend at church who was able to show me how to crochet. She taught me the double stitch. took a little bit to get it right, but when it clicked it was like, "Wow! This is easy! I like this." I've gotten the hang of it. Now I just need to learn how to finish it off, and work on the tension. Either the yarn is so loose it's falling off my pinky finger, or it's so tight the yarn doesn't want to slide over my fingers. Makes for some cramped hands and fingers. I even end up tensing my shoulders, and then they're sore. :) This example in the pictures is anything but great, but that's okay. I am just learning and it's the first time I've been able to do more that one row. I'm having so much fun. It's easy to just relax and let go for a while. I'm glad I decided to do this.
