To: Knitting A Conundrum

Counted cross, needlepoint, embroidery, crochet, and I recently learned how to knit (very recently, LOL!). I have done some quilting in the past, but wouldn't say that I am any good at it. I did hardanger (once), and do basketweaving and make fabric flowers out of ribbon.

I would love to learn how to crochet doilies or collars, and/or do tatting. (Hint, hint!)

If you can crochet a granny square, you can crochet doilies.

That has a lot of the basics. Crocheting in a circle. Crocheting in clusters, and joining the clusters by chains. Going up to the next row.

Find an online pattern you'll like and I'm sure we can walk you through it!
