Crochet- the first attempt!

Hi there!
I am so sorry that I haven't written on here for so long. I have missed it so much, but unfortunately exams have to come first! Now they are almost all over, I have began to craft again (yay!!) and cannot wait to share my adventures with you.
Last holiday, I decided to pick up a crochet hook and give it a go. I have always wanted to try but have never got round to it till now. I have a step-by-step book for the basic stitches, but with the help of my hero, youtube, I can now make a granny square (almost)! It is in no ways perfect, but for a first attempt I was pretty happy, especially as it wasn't the right hook so it didn't fit around. Next I want to tackle my enemy: a circle. They always somehow end up looking like some sort of blob, but I will let you know if any progress is made, although I seriously doubt it! I have tried to make quite a few but this is definitely the best one out of them all.  Tonight I am going to have an attempt at a bit of crochet in a circle. Wish me luck!
