I am slightly frustrated with my crocheting right now. I have tried several different patterns for hats and none of them seem to be coming out as the pattern picture shows. I even purchased a pattern online and have had quite a bit of difficulty with it. I've been doing a lot of ripping out and restarting, and I'm not that quick of a crocheter so all this time spent with nothing to show for it is a little sad. :(
Sewing is so much quicker for certain things. But, I do love crochet - not ready to give up on it yet. I just wish I could find a "fool proof" pattern - if there is such a thing - for a nice slouch hat. I'm going to keep looking and trying. I've also been looking at slipper patterns and giving them a try. Hopefully, I'll have more than dishcloths and scrubbies done soon - want to get some gifts ready but it's taking so long, grrrrrr.
Okay, going to dig in and try again.
In the process of healing from life and its tragedies, I've heard and am finding that all things creative can be a form of therapy, along with sharing and expressing one's self and one's creations.
Here lies part of my journey to find Peace, Love, and Forgiveness in this crazy life of mine.
