Thanks. I'm going to give it about 5 more minutes to get everyone here. This shouldn't be a very long workshop at all.

It's really easy. I've replaced/made bags for 3 out of 5 of my glass pieces. Now I use the velvet bags from SSA for my non-glass toys

I'm a knitter, but I want to hang out with ya'all anyway. I know how to crochet. I just never do it anymore. Maybe that will change after tonight.

I sparked a love for Roller Derby this weekend. Saw 1.5 drag shows. Good weekend overall!

Nice!

My husband and I took the weekend off and spent it holed up together. I got to play with a new sex swing, and it was awesome!

In one hat knitting competition I was in with both knitters and crocheters the organizers talked about how they had to make the crochet projects much harder so the crocheters wouldn't finish first. It sounded like they had a tough time finding a crochet pattern with enough difficulty that a crocheted hat would take as long as a knit hat. And the knitting hat patterns were easy.

Hi and Welcome! Bear with me, I’m a bit nervous!
So how many of y’all are actual crocheters? For those of you who aren’t, I’ve linked two tutorials that are great for beginners. I might mention stitches here that are a little confusing, so be sure to search YouTube for those specific stitches. There are tons of tutorials out there!

I'm sure you could, but I don't have ANY idea on using a loom and don't know how to instruct you.

But if your loom can make a small, 2 inch diameter tube, I'm certain you could certainly do that!

OKAY!

STEP ONE!

OK, so this pouch is crocheted in the round. To start, you’ll chain 3 stitches and join them together to make a ring. Then you will single crochet into the ring six (6) times then slip stitch to join and finish the circle. When it’s complete, it should look like this:
