First Crochet FO

Crochet was never my cup of tea. Maybe because I am a left handed and had to read the instructions in a reversed direction.

But being a knitter, I thought i should try out crochet. I started this FO 2 years ago. I think in Year 2006. OMG! So long ago. But luckily I still manage to finish it. The yarns I used is olympus silk bijou cost me a bomb approximately $20+. Overall it is quite a nice experience. Would attempt to crochet a few more items in future.

Hi mira,

ya sort of.
sometime need to read the instructions in a reversed order oso. It is pretty challenging. :)
