I see I'm not the only one who always has a bunch of projects going on all at the same time. Right now I'm working on a four-seasons cross-stitch, knitting a baby sweater for a co-worker who is having a baby girl in May (love knitting frilly pink girly sweaters!), and starting to design my next quilt.

Fixing to start knitting a poncho for my daughter.

Just got done crocheting a poncho for my daughter! It's cute, too. It's sky blue and has fringe around the bottom.

Unfinished: Huge medieval style cross-stitch, a purse I'm knitting for myself, and some finishing touches on my daughter's dollhouse (like some wallpaper and trim).

I knit and crochet, but crochet is the one I did first. It's funny you say that about crocheting being frustrating, because knitting can be a little harder for me. I find crocheting to be easy, maybe because I started when I was 9. But I must say I like the way a knitted peice looks better than a crocheted one. Have you tried getting an illustrated how to crochet book? That can make it so much easier. Good luck!

On this knitted purse I'm doing, it has a cable pattern on the edges and strap. Now that is frustrating!

wow I had no idea we had so many yarn and thread users!

Those other things are cool too!! I think it is so neat how many of us are working on things for other people. What a blessing that must be to the person that receives it.

I also find that Crocheting easier than knitting. I am not sure why. Doesn't anyone have any helpful tips ?
