I have been crocheting now a long time, and never tire of it. Always have something to make the my hook move. Creativity is a wonderful thing, I ask for more of it daily..You have a nice place here, I'll be back so much to read and look at. Love those spice jars, been looking for some a long time. Enjoy your day.. I started out knitting as a young girl..missed stitches and binding off soon became troublesome. I have been crocheting now a long time, and never tire of it.

It has video clips for all sorts of stitches,putting first stitches on the needles, binding off, you name it. I was a crocheter first, then learned to knit. Love knitting so much more. Knitting is all the rage...there are knitting groups/guilds all over the world. (lots of good and humorous knitting books out there too!) We have a knitting guild that meets at our community college once a week, but we also have a knitting "class" that is taught to all ages and we even have boys and men who come to learn! And when there aren't any newbies, we just sit around and knit and gossip. It's all good! http://www.knittinghelp.com IS a very good site.

(I can do both, but prefer knitting). Isn't it funny how the creativity pops back up when we can finally catch a breath from our mothering?

Oh, well - maybe some day again!

I have dolls I made from scratch in the linen closet, with nowhere to put them at the moment. I loved it at the time too. I never made clothing for myself. Seemed boring to me. But I adored making things for my home. I have handmade quilts all over my house. Brenda I’ve done all these except knitting.

Here's the link: http://ohioknitwits.blogspot.com I have links to various knitty places (shopping and other blogs) on the sidebar. A good (and somewhat inexpensive) place to buy needles and wool is on eBay. And if you want a good knitty read, try any book by Elizabeth Zimmerman (author of such classics as "the Opinionated Knitter" and "Knitting Around"). Have fun and knit well.

Hang in there, Suzanne, you'll soon master knitting. I think crochet is a lot harder than knit.
