My mother, grandmothers, and aunts are talented ladies. Just by seeing a design, they can weave, knit, crochet, or embroidery. I have seen absolutely stunning designs that they have made. When my aunt showed me a crochet piece that belonged to my great grandmother, I was astonished. The work is neat and beautiful. Makes me imagine that my great grandmother was not only creative but also a lovely lady.
Most of the younger generation hasn't been involved in these crafts. That's only because of lack of time. In an attempt to learn from the talented ladies, I bought crochet hook and wool. My aunt and mom taught me a design or two along with the basic crochet stitches. I'm still learning and experimenting. It's totally fun especially to spend time with them. :-)
Presenting my humble attempt to crochet flowers...

They are very beautiful. You can join so many of them and make a shawl.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Indrani. That was the initial plan but I now use them each as coasters.
