Julia, it's on the site I sent you in PM. It's the cornflower throw, but I'm doing it in browns and greens instead. |

TeresaW, good luck, I know what you mean. By the way, which site did you get it from, so that I can have a look. |

Hazel, if you want to learn, forget knitting for a while, put it away and do something else, cross stitch or something. |

Annina, good afternoon. managed to get out for an hour and went to Dunelm. They had not got what I was looking for, but the trip was not a total disaster. Got another hook, so now when I have printed a copy of my pattern off, I can put a bag of work into my 'Hospital bag'. Well, the hooks being small, as opposed to knitting needles, won't get tangled in me intravenous drips. |

Nice to see a reference too Tatting. I have tried this and made some motifs which I then sewed onto aT-shirt, but always have to find the training manual if I start anything else. |

Good morning all, and thank you all for your contributions to this thread. I didn't expect the wonderful response. I am going to spend this afternoon looking at the several sites suggested by yourselves. |

I know how to crochet, but when it comes to following a pattern I have difficulty. I discovered that some 'how to crochet' instructions call one stitch double crochet while another set will call it triple, if you know what I mean, and I never know which set is used in the patterns. |
