a boo-boo |
An example would be my recent return to knitting. I am by far good at it. In fact, dare I say - I stink to the high heavens! My tension is strange and I am constantly splitting the yarn or twisting the stitch the wrong way. That may not sound promising but the truth is - I'm a lot better than I was a month ago. I am doing all of those same things but with much less frequency - and that, to me dear readers, is progress! (another P word, YAY!)
I know that learning a new craft is frustrating and sometimes daunting. The hook doesn't want to grab the yarn or the yarn has a death grip on the hook... but I promise you with practice you will progress to precision in producing professional looking pieces.
HA - now that's a lot of Ps :)

LOL Very cute and very true. I discovered two dropped stitches in a piece I was knitting yesterday. Frustrating but I learned how to pick them up without tearing it out, which is a good thing! You are doing great!
That's a lot of P's there Miss Cris. Dare I say 'Positively Pleasant'! :o)
Great alliteration. :) And it's true, practice makes perfect. And challenging yourself in your practice helps develop new skills.
Keep at it - you're doing great! I'm fairly new to crochet so I feel your pain with the knitting...
