Oooo, let me think! I think the biggest thing I have learnt about crocheting is you never stop learning and improving.
I learnt the basics, then occasionally the odd fancy stitch and thought that would be it. But 3 years on I am still learning and adapting my work. My crocheting is vastly different, to me, from even the beginning of the year. I find my stitches get neater and tighter the more I do.

So even if you're not happy with your work or you think it'll never be as good as your crocheting idols, just carry on and you will get there! It won't happen over night, and you might not even notice it is changing much, but one day you will look back on some of your earlier work and be pleasantly suprised by the changes :)
(I also find that by crocheting your maths gets better! Weird, but true...)
i've learnt that its much easier to frog (undo)a crochet piece than it is knitting lol
ReplyDeleteyou do improve as you go along and crocheting is much more relaxing than knitting and its very addictive
I too find crocheting more relaxing, as I am struggling with the knitting :( I think alot more can go wrong with knitting - crocheting is very forgiving if you make a mistake :)
