I did it!









Grey pumpkin from Manuela

The pumpkin of Manuela from Lilla Svalan inspired me so much that I gave it a try too: Crocheting a pumpkin! I had not had a crochet needle in my hand for over 35 years and on top - I hated crocheting then! With the help of you tube and lots of confidence I MANAGED! Look at the result above! They are not as perfect as Manuela's but I am very proud all the same!

So what does that story tell? 

NEVER GIVE UP!

Keep well!

  6. Well done Christa! They are cute pumpkins. Now that you have resumed your crochet, I look forward to seeing more:) I didn't learn to crochet when I was young, but maybe I will give it a try sometime.
