Awesome!! CrochetChick and Kasimera your crochet stuff is awesome! I've never tried to make something as huge as an afghan! I have made a few little knit creatures, but they don't turn out as nicely as crochet. Amigurumi is adorable though :) One day I'll get more serious and pick up my needles again. Right now I think I am just a little daunted by the items I'm working on - a small knit Final Fantasy Moogle (improvised, having some issues with the face & closing it off), my first ever knit lace shawl, and a double-knit scarf that's not turning out quite like I hoped. I need to work on it all, but I just can't bring myself to do it!

You're welcome! I love to encourage people to be crafty. We can have row competitions if you want! You do a row and I'll do a row. Before we know it, we'll have our projects completed!

Yeah! I've only done small things so far, but I have made a pair of fingerless gloves that didn't turn out too bad. Now that I'm getting more comfortable with crocheting I have so many things I want to do. :D

Currently improvising trying to make a floppy eared bunny thing. I found a really cute pattern for a skirt I would love to try out, and granny square beanies and cool scarves and the list goes on. I need a chest of yarn. :O
