Granny would be proud !

My Great Grandmother and Grandmother were both beautiful and expert crocheters . My sister also inherited the gene ,and although she says she can't really crochet , she can do beautiful things with a crochet hook .

I , on the other hand , did not inherit that gene , the first time I tried to teach myself crochet I ended up with a four dimensional object .

However , my good friend Rosie recommended the Beginners Crochet workshop , that Karen holds in Once A Sheep yarn store , taken by the very talented Janet Renouf-Miller .

And after much practice , this is what I made ( the other two squares are not quite right , but were good practice ) .

Excuse the grainy macbook photo - DS1 has hidden camera again , no doubt with several thousand snaps of lego for his stop-mo shorts for Youtube!

Anyhoo , think Granny would be proud of me now , with this Granny Square . Can't wait for the intermediate course!
