My attempt at crochet


I have always enjoyed knitting, so recently I knitted a little blanket. One of my friends then mentioned that I should crochet a boarder around the knitted blanket.
Well I have never crocheted before and didn’t even know where to begin.  I then did some research and found a step-by-step guide to crocheting. I went out and bought a hook and wool and attempted to crochet. Well it was certainly not as easy as it looked and attempt after attempt I could just not get it, but practice does make perfect and eventually I did manage to get it right. 

This is the result of many attempts and practice:


 

This is my second crocheted blanket:

 
I do unfortunately only know the one stich and although I have now bought books I am just not getting it right so again I will keep trying and when I do eventually get another stitched mastered I will no doubt post an up-date here!!

However if any of you have some easy to use patterns, with step by step, pictured instructions please do share it with us!
