She's Melissa F. She has been learning knitting for the last 2 months and when she came to us, she wanted to learn how to crochet.

The reason?

She bought a pattern book mistaking the project she liked as a knitting pattern. She only realized it's a crochet project when she got home.

Anyway, she is doing quite well with the progress and is planning to get a knitted project started for her sister.


As for Melissa Q (seen here), she's now progressing along to the color work.


This isn't quite a portable project at the moment as she needs to refer to the chart constantly as well as handle the various yarn bobbles -- winding yarn butterflies didn't work as we needed larger amounts; the ziplock bags seem to work better at holding the yarns in place.

I can't wait to see the WIPs!
