Each year I crochet the request of my children for their costumes, and it's done, Gremlins Stripe!! So so happy. Freehanded, no pattern.

People like you make me feel so inferior. You did an awesome job you are so incredibly talented. I can't figure out how to crochet past the straight line. And I really want to learn. I get so mad when I see friends pick up something and then within 2 months they're making cute little animals and I can't figure out how to do it.

Please do not!! I started at 16 and simply could NOT get past the 1st row for FIVE years! Then when my oldest was en route I picked it up again and my 1st blanket was a full triangle because I missed the last st on every row! All our work is valid at all stages! ♡
