Surprised.

Surprised that something I made from a tutorial or pattern actually turned out okay.

Surprised that something I CROCHETED looks relatively neat & tidy.

Surprised that I really, really like the feel of a mug cosy on my coffee cup. I thought “Here we are, a nice useless thing I’ve made”, but when I held the cup it felt so nice & I’m sure it would keep the coffee hot longer… I’m making another already.

starting again

Surprised that I will be attempting to help OTHER PEOPLE to crochet something next week… I don’t know who I should be more nervous for, them, or me.

    I don't think anyone is surprised at what you can do. Very nice mug cosy you have there! Looking forward to MPAY, I think.

    Hah! I am surprised, too, that I actually like such a useless thing like a mug cozy. Never understood why people make these, but this one actually looks great! Love the color! Why don't you make a petrol one next to match the mustard? (And BING, you got me :D.)
