To: Knitting A Conundrum
I crochet. I can make fancy doilies and table and bed covers. I think that is called tatting.

Also I like to make granny squares and big covers that are just big granny squares.

I'd love to knit but I can't figure it out. Sounds stupid but I can't do it from pictures.

Gosh, I used to work with this woman who could turn out knitted sweaters with designs on them like deer in a forest drinking from a stream. It was so impressive and so natural to her.

Tatting is sort of like netting...I like to do thread work too, crochet or knit, but I never mastered tatting...I have a couple of old bakelike tatting shuttles running around the place, but they don't do me much good.
