Go to your local craft store and ask if they have an open needle work day. You can just show up and someone will get you started. Our local Michaels has that every Wednesday, I believe. It's been a few years though. Crocheting is not that hard to get the hang of.eyes4ears wrote: ↑Thu Jun 21, 2018 10:49 pmI do better one on one. I am a pretty quick learner but tge visual helps.
What are your favorite crafts?

I luve in a small town. Right now I am trying to find someone that teaches adult lsewing classes. The local cc taught them in January, but it was only during the work day.pinkbutterfly66 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 21, 2018 11:00 pmGo to your local craft store and ask if they have an open needle work day.

I think the library taught crochet a couple of years ago, but again during the work day hours.
Go to the nextdoor.com site and join, it's good for finding neighbors with stuff to sell and there might be a yarn club. If not you could ask if anyone would be interested in giving you some crochet lessons.eyes4ears wrote: ↑Thu Jun 21, 2018 11:06 pmI luve in a small town.

I am on that site for our area. It isn't that big of a deal here. Mostly lost or found stuff, breakins etc.pinkbutterfly66 wrote: ↑Fri Jun 22, 2018 12:03 amGo to the nextdoor.com site and join, it's good for finding neighbors with stuff to sell and there might be a yarn club.

I bought myself a sewing machine on black Friday a few years back, ironic since I can't sew on a machine. But I want to have that goal accomplished.
I do so many other kinds of projects, dyi stuff that I teach myself. I am constantly doing those kinds of projects.

I like it but I haven't done it in years. I still save everything for scrap books. You just made me remember that I am supposed to work on that this summer and have everything cleared out and finished by the time school starts again. LOL Fat chance.
This is the loom I'm gonna use for the rug.eyes4ears wrote: ↑Fri Jun 22, 2018 12:13 amLol.

And you just tie the yarn on one peg with a slip not and then just wrap the yarn around the rest of them until you get two wraps and you use the pick to pull the bottom yarn over and off the peg and then repeat.
You end up with a tube of yarn that you can stitch into circle, oval, rectangle. I had some regular yarn but I wasn't really happy the way it was turning out.
Here's what a spool knit rug would look like if you just wound it. You can also braid it. Of course it has to be stitched together, lol.
