Back to basics...

OK, this might seem pretty basic to all you crochet experts out there, but this is quite an achievement for me. Although I've been knitting for 30 plus years, I only dabbled with crochet once as a teenager. I produced a pile of random granny squares that were subsequently shoved into a plastic bag and stashed somewhere at Mum and Dad's house. Recently I asked Mum what had happened to them, and she told me they had been donated to a local charity that had sewn them together into a lovely blanket for an old folks' home. So, many, many years later I decided to try my hand at crochet again. After a few abysmal attempts that didn't resemble anything decent, I started to make a little progress.
I feel this is the beginning of great things to come....!!

I'll be using these practice pieces as face cloths. The crochet produces a slightly denser fabric than knitting. These samples are made from our DK 100% linen.
