Time for some crocheting

Now that I've finally finished knitting a pretty normal scarf, I'm sick of knitting needles and have decided to go for crocheting. Unfortunately, intelligent little me did not bring my amigurumi kit (hook and yarns) and amigurumi pattern book to Japan, partly cause of all the cursing and stressing over a hook which was too small for someone who can do pretty much nothing...

So I went down to the 100 yen store (again!) and got myself a 7 mm crochet hook. And now I just have to decide whether to start on amigurumi, socks, or blanket (which we already need!). Or then again I might just start reviewing my crochet skills and see if I actually get anywhere! Just wait and see...

My new "candy colour" (aka red) hook. Nice and thick so I can see what I'm doing!
