Building Blocks…..

Learning something new often takes a few attempts to get it perfect, but it is how we all grow, and gain more experience.

For years I have taught various things, and particularly when I was teaching hairdressing I had a favourite saying, that my students came to hate!!

“Keep doing what you are doing, and you will keep getting what you are getting”

 

In other words, if we never try anything new, we will never get any different results.
And experience is all about constantly trying to add more tools and techniques to our “tool box”.
Yes it can feel uncomfortable to begin with, but so did walking when you first learned to do that!

This week you will again be working around the whole project, building blocks using very simple stitches.

You now have a short side, and a long side, which are clearly marked on the pattern.

Make sure your stitch count is correct on the first round, and then be aware of the number of stitches you need to skip before and after the corners in some of the rounds.

Where you are working the longer stitches, make sure you are working in front of the chain spaces and not over them, again be very mindful when you are working the corners.

This is another point where you could stop for a baby blanket, maybe just adding a shell border. 🙂

So, have fun, and remember I am always around to answer any questions you may have.
