My son is modeling the cowl/hood I made my niece for the winter. That kid puts up with me. What a goofball

I recently got back into crocheting and knitting since I had my daughter. I'm excited, I now have someone to model the things I create. Everyone in this thread has some cool and creative things. This is a hat I made for her recently, the blanket behind her was a gift from a friend's mom.

^ That's cute. I can't crochet to save my life, how did you learn?

YouTube. Lots and lots of YouTube. I'm a visual learner so videos really help me. It took patience and time and lots of wanting to curse and throw hooks across the room.

I'll have to have a look, my grandma tried teaching me when I was little but I just couldn't get my head around it. I can knit all sorts of things but crochet has always been beyond me!

My grandmothers taught me to crochet but I rarely did it so I forgot how. Later as a teen, I bought the "I Taught Myself How to Crochet" book at Roses department store (anyone remember Roses???) and relearned.
Here is a blanket I finished this morning for the daughter my brother and his wife are expecting in January. It's a basic pink grannie square with a pink, fushia, and brown border. I am not into pink, even for my girls, but I know my SIL will love it

^ That's pretty, goldencurly.
I'm glad I'm not the only one that's not into pink - I was always quite glad I had boys so I didn't have to have pink stuff eveywhere!

Thanks!
I crocheted a blue grannie square blankie for my daughter S when she was about a year old. She was not into pink at all. When I got pregnant with K, I baffled everyone because I knitted a blue lace cap. I told them we didn't know what I was having but any baby, boy or girl, could wear a blue lace hat! My son did and we have the cutest pics of him at about 9 months old at the beach in a light blue lace cap with a dark navy and green striped long sleeved shirt and blue jeans rolled up. No one thought he was a girl! It was a Shetland pattern that didn't look feminine at all!
I also crocheted K a grannie square blankie. So we could tell his and S's apart, his is a denim yarn that is blue, green and purple but from across the room, it looks like a marbled blue instead of a solid blue. He loves it and still sleeps with it.

I'm thinking of relearning
My mom taught me how in middle school but I didn't stick with it. I wish I would have.

Great job!
Ha!!! I used that same book to learn.
I'd never heard of Rose's but one just opened not too far from me

Tonight I finished knitting an alien ballerina. Yes, an alien ballerina. Why? My brother and his wife are expecting their first child in January and the shower is this Saturday. The alien is the toy to go along with blanket I posted earlier when I finished crocheting it. We like unique and silly things, so why not? The tutu is made from the same yarn that edges the blankie. I am also knitting a hat with a heart lace design out of the pale pink yarn in middle of the blankie. It's a set! I hope I can finish it before Saturday!
