You and me both, sister!!@Zing thanks, now I have to repent for coveting your house.

Yep, sweet potato vines which I love. Bad news is that the Japanese beetles also love sweet potato vines.I LOVE your landscaping- it really does compliment your house. You uncovered a gem when you tore out the bushes. I like your house too- cottage style is my favorite! I particularly like the cascading vines- sweet potato?
You want details? I'll give you details!@Zing I too love your house and landscaping. I've seen you mention that the house had no kitchen before, but I guess I just thought that meant the kitchen wasn't functional. Did it truly have no kitchen - not even a roughed in one? If so, I really admire Mrs. Zing's ability to see potential.
If you can do the chain stitch, you can crochet. Everything else is just a variation on the chain stitch. You just have to learn where to insert the hook.All I can do is a chain stitch. Anything I try to add onto that looks like a wad of knots . Going to have to find someone to teach me right after I fix and redesign all of my jewelry...
I kind of love you for this.And I am well aware that we had an entirely first-world problem compared to my clients.
Its fun to follow patterns and see your work come to look like the pretty blanket in the picture. I have never kept anything that i crocheted, so i have nothing to show you lol.I never follow patterns. I find it easier to make stuff up as I go. I've made a few dolls and toys, both crochet and knitted, and I just don't have the patience for patterns. I should probably learn to follow them... eventually... some day...
Such fun, right? our first night in our new house was on an inflatable sofa bed on a cement floorWe said we were camping in our house.
Isn't that the truth! I spin very fine (socks), but have been just letting the fiber do as it wills. Getting back to the standardized "slubs".There will come a time in the future when you may want to make "art" yarn and wish you could do the uneven spinning again. It takes a bit of unlearning once you get there.
