When You Start at The Beginning…
If you are looking at this post you probably fall into one of two categories:

Thank you for sharing at The Really Crafty Link Party. Pinned.
I was a beginner 50 years ago. Now, I enjow doing a lot of “beginner projects” because they are small, portable, and easy to keep in my purse or grab as I go out the door. Or easy just because Im being lazy, lol. Im a grandma. I enjoy small easy fast new projects. I enjoy refresher, with new stitches.
Marsha, I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed the round up 🙂 I enjoy doing beginner projects for those reasons as well, and because they are great if you can’t pay as much attention to your crochet. ~Caitlin
