I ordered the pattern and found knitting a bit too difficult, so I switched to crochet and have been muddling along trying to learn. It is much easier than knitting (for me at least... one needle instead of two LOL) but I am AMAZED at your beautiful stitches. I can't even see my stitches, it all looks like one big yarn knot spewing off my hook ROFL. Oh well, I'm going to keep trying and hopefully I will get a nice bear out of this to send to Africa.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for posting the pictures of your bears (they are an inspiration to us beginners!) and making us aware of this WONDERFUL project! :o)<BR/><BR/>JenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33799892.post-55382713563716738192008-12-19T11:25:00.000-07:002008-12-19T11:25:00.000-07:00What a wonderful project.

We wish our Mum had some talent like that but she is a lefty and has had a hard time figuring this crochet business out. So she cross-stitches and needlepoints.
