which many of you won’t get 😉
Don’t you just hate it when you carefully start your latest crochet project (that you spent all evening yesterday untangling a skein of wool into balls for (note to self, stop buying hanks/ skeins, you just don’t look after them properly)) and you do the first two rounds, then you figure out that this was a US pattern, not a UK pattern, and you’ve done it all in the wrong stitch?
Grrr. :rant:
And why is it that Americans have all the best yarns and all the best patterns???? I’ve found some wonderful free patterns, and the yarns they are designed for just aren’t available over here! this shoulder shrug is so easy and would be such a great present (and way way quicker to do than the pattern I bought on the market!) and can I figure out what yarn that I can get here would work for it? :rant: again.
Tim has suggested that I put together a little yarn conversion calculator. This would involve I think, gathering suggestions for different types of yarn at different weights, and when you put in one particular yarn weight and length, it would suggest alternatives. I like the idea, and I think it would be relatively simple to do. I might need some assistance gathering info though. Anyone up for it?
