Training (Chat Now!): 2010 Crochet Games of Ancient Greece

[CLLinda]

I'm joining the Games! Found a pattern, some yarn and now I am just waiting for the starting gun. It's so exciting.

And I am making a baby dress, using a small size b or c hook, which is a lot of little stitches, therefore, that is my challenge. I usually use at least an "H", so a "b" will certainly be a challenge.

And when it's finished, it will be also used in my county fair in the summer. Kind of a two for one project.

I now just have to wait until the opening ceremonies. That will be the hardest part.

Well I would join but going back to school in the winter so can't commit to this.

HYH patterns are easy once you get the hang of squaring off the littel saltines and figure out - ahead of time - how you're going to join them.
And there are 2 kinds of felting: needle (I haven't a clue about that) and using wool (NOT washable wool) to make a bag or pet mat for example - washing it after making it so it shrinks and the sttiches tighten till the piece looks like fabric - and can actually be cut like fabric.
