The CrAftY Side of me comes out...

I love to do things with my hands and i love being crafty and artistic. once apon a time i thought i was good at working with my hands but last night was a good awakening at how much little i knew about crocheting!!!
Let me start at the beginning. In our new ward we have a weekly crocheting lesson (thursday nights at 7) so i got all excited last week and i pulled out some yarn that we had and i got me some crocheting hooks so i started to try and work my magic and refresh my self on the art of crocheting. I thought i did ok too i had made Daniel a ear warmer and i tabogen (a beany) i even lined the inside of them so they would be soft and not itchy. i will post some pics and then go on with my story...



So last night i went to the crocheting lesson and was shocked at how hard reading a pattern really is!!! I am not good at instructions unless someone just shows me how to do it. Im a very hands on person so instructions and i do not get along together real well. A girl named Sara gave me a pattern of a beautiful afghan and she said she has made it and its super easy and it says its an easy pattern, well im totally stumped!! Crocheting is so addicting and i usually can sit down and crochet for hours at a time, but not this time. I would like to sit down and be able to do it but i swear the pattern is in spanish!! Sara said for me to text call or come over to her house if i ever need help, well i was on the phone with her last night, she did not know what she was getting her self into! If anyone has any tips on reading a pattern please please please help me out!! Till next time....
