craftermary's knitting and crochet project

[Cavegirl21]

I have been a knitter for 40 years. So I decided it's now time to learn how to crochet. Crocheting blankets is so much faster than knitting. I have been knitting for Prem babies and going to do some mittens for the homeless. I love doing it as it's so relaxing as long as the pattern isn't too busy.

I too am a knitter but never been able to crochet.

 

[Cavegirl21]

They do say you can't do both but I have seen a lot of people who can so I'm going to teach myself. I did have a go a few months ago but gave up. I'm going to use youtube videos to help me with it.
What do you like knitting?

 

[Cavegirl21]

I'll show you some of the things I have made Janet when I can post pics.

 

[Cavegirl21]

Here you go Janet. Some Prem items. They are so easy to knit and I do them inbetween the bigger items.

This was knitted for Grand D but it seems to still be here on my sofa. I feel in love with it. Will have to knit her a new one.

I'm doing a baby doll and crib. My wool has been delivered for the crib so will do that this afternoon.

Here is my baby doll so far. Needs a sleepsuit.
