Is this something beautiful? Kind of!
So last night, after feeling pretty comfortable with the simple chain stitch, I decided to try the next step, crocheting into that first chain. I had been planning on just waiting till someone else could try and teach me, but instead I busted out my Stitch'n'Bitch Happy Hookers book, and attempted to translate the instructions into skill. (I am usually really, really, really bad at this.) And it was hard, I wasn't getting it, I shelved the yarn, then decided to try a little more. And I came up with this! I'm not sure if this is what it's supposed to look like, but it might be, and that was enough for me for the night. :) And the best part is, I was able to struggle up to this point without any silly outbursts of frustration. I kept it calm. :)
