I've tried to learn from videos but can't do it. Don't know if it's coz I'm left-handed or not but your fotos seem to be explaining it and making it seem a lot easier to pluck up the courage to try 😊 . Thankyou ever so much for fotos and for explaining how to transfer technique to other stitches. And Thankyou for your free patterns that I also have just come across x❤ 🙋 sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14976065370271467711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5467118797210913558.post-50272522001588975342017-01-12T11:48:48.911-07:002017-01-12T11:48:48.911-07:00Absolutely!

Like you, I have tried several times to learn how to do foundation stitches instead of chaining, always the same ending, extremely frustrated and walking away from crocheting for a few weeks. This is perfect, read through once and it just clicked!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05707671785547225468noreply@blogger.com
