I currently make the blankets to give to the church for homeless and aged care facilities.
I'd like to do some different things maybe next year, at the moment I am knitting more smaller items.

I am frustrated with a pattern I am doing from the Living with Yarn books purchased from Spotlight. The pattern is for a Marvel Shrug Coat with marvel meaning the yarn used in the pattern. The skill level of the pattern is rated easy and I am a fairly competent crochet person but I am stuck with this one. The pattern starts at the sleeve edge on the wrist and works it way along the arm, but then I get to a certain point in the pattern where it says 'To start the other sleeve, fold in half lengthwise'. This is where I get stuck I don't understand what the pattern wants me to do, does anyone have an idea. I will try and load a picture of the pattern in my photos if anyone can look and tell me what to do to get this done. I dearly want to finish this for my daughter.

i have a moda vera wisp pattern that came with the yarn. i do not understand the instructions. it is a crochet wrap called a Wisp Wrap. The concern i have is with the reference to "turn"
the pattern says as follows:
Rows 2 & 3: 5ch, turn. problem is that if its 5 chains after each other they arent attached to anything to turn to make a difference...or am i missing something?
is it something so simple i cant understand? i really wanted to make a beautiful black wrap. i was knitting one but my daughter pulled the needles out and the wool was impossible to find the dropped stitches in (right at the last few rows too ;-(
hoping you can help me auntiDi. the wrap does look beautiful when its finished.

Good Luck in your search.

I love crochet too. I think it's far more versatile than knitting, though I enjoy that sometimes. I've been doing a thing with crochet I haven't seen anywhere, but can't believe no one has thought of. It's working in rounds like Granny crochet, but with no holes in the corners. Makes a very smooth solid fabric.
I just start with a square and work double crochet along one side until I can't go any further. Then instead of turning OVER and working back the other way (which makes ridges), I turn the work 90 degrees, 1 ch, 1 dc into the same place as the last dc worked, and continue on the next side.
Have you seen this anywhere? I have pics and a project on my inspiration room.
Thanks!

This is the book I used to learn crochet.
It is fabulous and detailed. You should easily get the hang of it in the end.
It also has some fabulous patterns for when you have moved behond the basics.
Here is a website that shows more about the book:
http://www.amazon.com/Instant-Expert-Crochet-Thunder-Press/dp/1592237088#noop [amazon.com]
I really do reccomend it.
Good luck, and enjoy getting back into the crochet spirit!
