Casey devoted an entire post to me yesterday to help me with this project. Thanks Casey! I picked the simple pot holder pattern that Casey shared to begin. The problem I discovered was ME. I'm left handed. I got the chain stitch down but when I turned to make the single crochet everything looked wrong.
I went to YouTube and found this video. Then I started over. Again.
Not perfect. But a better chain stitch.
I kept restarting the video until I got to the part where you make the turn for the second row. This is where I messed up on my first attempts.
I watched this video again and came up with another mess.
I will never get to Carnegie Hall this way! Back to YouTube.
Here is another, and better video for left handers.
I cut my losses, literally, and started over once again. At least the chain stitch was quick and easy this time.
See. I am making progress! :D
I know I've probably lost most of you by now? Especially those who are good at this or right handed.
Since I am neither of these, I'll continue. It's okay if you are bored and leave. I understand. Really, I do.
Below is the final photo for today. It looks like something, but not the something I am going for.
Maybe I should get back to work on my hanging baskets?
Hope you have a good day!
