Crafty Threads 'n' Yarns

Crochet Week will soon be upon us. Please post here to show how you are participating. Are you going to learn to crochet, teach someone to crochet, pick up a hook after a long respite (I think it must be 30 years since I last wielded a hook in earnest) or maybe crochet for charity?

I can't find an official Crochet Week link, so if you come across one please post that too.

Haven't decided exactly what I'm going to do, but I have the Happy Hooker all ready for action! I can crochet a little, so might attempt to actually make "something"

I've got the happy hooker too, and a twilleys crochet teaching book, and I still can't do it Rolling Eyes

I just need to sit down and persevere, cos I could crochet granny squares when I was small, I just need to remember how Very Happy

All being well, I intend to work exclusively on my sampler blanket. I've been so taken with knitting socks lately, I've neglected the old crochet.

Oooh, nice necklace!

I shall either carry on with my granny scrap blanket, or make a small shawl/scarf I've got my eye on.

Mine's just a big granny square that I keep going round and round on! Takes away the pain of crocheting all the squares together!!! I had a whole bag of cotton glace in pinks and purples, but not enough to make anything with (iyswim). I started it last summer, but haven't really put any effort into it - 'bout time I did, it's supposed to be a picnic blanket to leave at the caravan when it opens in two weeks time!!
