Crochet 1

I recommend getting a size J or K hook for learning reasons.
 Some regular white or very light colored yarn and we are all set to begin.
Watch the video first, then I will add some notes.
The reason I prefer you get a large hook and light yarn is so we can see what you are doing. If you have a problem and send a pic. It will be nice if I can actually see it. 


I am getting very frustrated trying to load a video here. I finally figured out my problem. My youtube and google are on different accounts.  Makes me quite silly *rolls eyes*
Tomorrow if we are not on babywatch, I will remedy this.  :)

When you first start go ahead and rip it out as many times as you need to,
 until you are sure you have the beginning and chain down pat.  
This video is not very good, but other things came up today. 
Then the ones I did after dark did not work at all. 
We will get a better one up though. With instructions on it. 

God Bless

Duct Tape and Baling Wire

  A silly fun fact I thought I would share. What is in a name? We changed our name from one that did not indicate what we did. Through long hard discussions we decided on ~ Emporium ~ It has a nice ring to it and denotes many items. Mira makes many things including her duct tape line. She does wooden wall decor, canvas wall decor, lanyards, beaded everything, crochet and so much more. I myself sew about anything, crochet about anything, do bead work and I bend baling wire. Yes! Baling wire or electric fencing. I bend it into rings, bracelets, and more. My favorite bent wire item though is my tree. So when we were trying to come up with a name Duct Tape and Baling Wire was at the forefront (for a minute or two anyway). We were afraid people would be disappointed when they realized we did not really carry nuts and bolts etc. ~Ginger
