Hi - I've just started to to learn to crochet. First attempt was pretty dire (wonky square), but tried again (using a fab tutorial on youtube) and have now managed a fairly neat reasonably sized square (the size of a small dishcloth)
I'm desperate to get on and make some things for my baby (silly me learning now that my maternity leave is nearly at an end!) and thought I would start with some little legwarmers (then maybe progress to hat and boots)
Do I need to practice more first? And how do I adapt patterns to her little legs? I've got a ball of wool from the local market (bonus DK extra value) - quite cheap but it's in a colour I really love. Can I use that?
Sorry for my overexcitement and urgency - you would think I had discovered the meaning of life rather than a simple handicraft - I just got so excited yesterday when I realised I had learnt to do something new for the first time in ages
