@Lumiadee. Thanks.
I started loom knitting in 2009. It's far easier and faster than the regular knitting.
There are numerous YouTube tutorials on how to get started.

You could make yours just like BobiJoe carves hooks.

Good day all.
Its been a while since I visited, hope we are all doing well?
What's everyone working on?

I'm making squares for a solid granny square blanket and planning my next lace blanket.

I want to make a simple bag for a friend. Our made in Nigeria acrylic doesn't have the stiffness of a 100% cotton yarn that the pattern needs. Has anyone tried a bag? What materials did you use?

From time to time I experiment with various fibres. I've used t-shirt yarn, plastic yarn, embroidery thread, nylon fishing twine (its usually white and comes in cones), even soft wire to crochet jewelry?

How about you?

If you buy via mall for Africa, you will have to pick it up at their office.

Amazon delivers to the address you quote normally.
Just make sure the address is one that can be located with ease.

I'm working on a 6-leaf cluster shawl for a friend.

Meanwhile you can triple our acrylic yarn and use the smallest of hooks. That will give your bag a lot of strength.

Lovemaths, sorry for the late reply. I have never bought from amazon, I usually buy from lovecrochet.com and they deliver within 2 weeks. I heard amazon now delivers to Nigeria though, so its worth a try. Hope you find something that works for you

I would be glad to help anyone who may have issues with charted patterns. Charts are not graphs, please! I am afraid of graph patterns, so I just avoid them, and thankfully none of my customers has commissioned one yet!

I love making graphghans. That's what I specialize in.

That is a good idea. It took me a long time to find fellow crocheters in Nigeria . I searched on Facebook, Twitter, instagram and Google. We should create a Facebook group first then brainstorm. This is a big industry in the textile sector with huge potentials for employment.
