30 Day Crochet Challenge- Day 1

Day 1: What was your first finished project?

When I was wanting to learn to crochet, I was left without a teacher. My Nana, who taught me to latch hook, tin punch, and candle wick, did not know how. My mom didn't know how. I was left to find a way of teaching myself.

Luckily, libraries exist.

In my high school library, I found Get Hooked:Simple Steps to Crochet Cool Stuff. It's geared toward the teen girl crowd, but I found it pretty helpful.

 It's the typical first projects type book. There's scarves, belts, small flowers, etc. There's a pretty cool skirt pattern in there.

I settled on doing a face scrubber pattern. It was basically a large circle of single crochet with a small loop for hanging. I did it in a pretty dark green that was not inspiring to face washing. It disappeared pretty quickly and I settled into doing more 3D type crochet.
