Counting the chain

I’m making progress on this whole crocheting craft. Above is a small sample of the different fabrics I’ve whipped up in the past week or so. The piece I’m most proud of is the circle. Figuring out the circle taught me that if I read through ALL the instructions crocheting is really easy. If I only read throught the first oh, two sentences or so, then it will continue to be a mystery.

I must have re-done that circle ten times. It always came out as a ruffle. Then I made myself sit down and read the two pages on it. After that I made a perfect circle. Amazing.
