Tatting

I have learned a new craft. I often think that I know too many little things, none of them too well, so I should focus more on a few instead of learning something new. But when the opportunity comes and a new challenge is presented, I am in! And this week, at our weekly workshops we learned how to do tatting. This is a craft that you don't usually see, or see people making it. I didn't even know what it was until this week. And now I'm addicted to it. It took me a good hour of unsuccessful trying, what's going on! I'm doing it right! I am doing exactly what you are doing but mine doesn't move (the thread should move if it's right)....but finally I figured it out and now I can say I can make it pretty fast and I only get confused every ten minutes or so.

He aprendido una labor nueva. Suelo pensar que se demasiadas cosas, pero ninguna muy bien, asi que deberia centrarme en pocas en lugar de aprender algo nuevo. Pero de repente la oportunidad me llama y ya estoy a la carga! Y esta semana, en nuestra clase semanal aprendimos como hacer frivolite. Es una labor que no se suele ver, o no sueles ver a gente haciendola. Ni siquiera sabia lo que era hasta esta semana. Y ahora estoy adicta a ella. Me llevo una buena hora de intentos fallidos, que pasa! lo estoy haciendo bien! Estoy haciendo exactamente lo mismo que tu pero el mio no corre (el hilo tiene que correr si esta bien hecho)...pero al final lo averigue y he de decir que me sale bastante rapido y solo me confundo cada 10 minutos.

I just have to add that I love doing crafts, they are so therapeutic for me, and I really don't know what I would do without them.

Solo anhadir que me encantan hacer labores, que son tan terapeuticas para mi, que la verdad es que no se que haria sin ellas.
