hometowncandles Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Those are really pretty! My mom does afghans too, but not me, I've tried to crochet a time or two and it just looked like I had tied a lot of yarn into a bunch of knots. And knitting, I am definately not coordinated enough to use two needles at once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nayarx8 Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 I love the colors of the baby one! Very pretty afghans, and you have more patience than me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airforcewife Posted August 14, 2007 Author Share Posted August 14, 2007 thanks for the nice comments, I love to knit afghans and scarves but sweaters and sock don't know if I would have the patients to finsh them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nayarx8 Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 If you think you dont have patience for sweaters, try knitting looms instead. I have an easy way of making kids size sweaters in one day, and adult sizes in 2 or 3 days. Go to Walmart and get that Knifty Knitter loom set; its about $12 there. I can make a 12 mos size sweater in about 3 hours on the looms. If you want help, lemme know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Late Night Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Very pretty!!! I like to crochet too. It has to be a very simple pattern though like a ripple. I'd love to learn how to knit socks. I don't think I could handle more than 2 needles though. Maybe I could, but I don't think I could read/understand the instructions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
