Maya's Hoodie and Dress


Here it is, my first foray into crochet!  I made this sweater, which was pretty adventurous for a first project, but that has been the way I learn - go in way over my head and try to fix my mistakes as I go along.  I discovered just how fast crochet is, and am wondering whether I may become a convert.  Knitters and crocheters seem to stay firmly on opposite sides of the fence, but I am intrigued by these new skills.  I get excited when there is so much more to learn, so expect more crochet to pop up for a while...  


Here Maya is, wearing wearing her hoodie in combination with the dress I knitted for her a while ago.  The dress is following the same pattern as the one I made for Sage last year, but I decided to try using a different colour for the trim.  I unintentionally made a set, because the trim on both is in the same purple yarn!
