no.. hardly at all.

*giggles*

You wouldn't care to explain it to me, would you?

The above is a link to a scorecard, now which bits dont you understand

Maybe I should send you a link for directions for crocheting an afghan or doily... see how you like reading gobbledygook...

I'll have you know I can crochet

Im gonna have to leave the run explanation a bit longer I'm afraid, as I am off to bed - need to be up in time for the england match after all...

Goodnight you guys, see youse later
vp

So tell me... how/when/why did you learn to crochet?

And what have you crochted lately?

recently nothing (same goes for knitting) but I did whip up a shirt on the sewing machine a couple of monrths back as when, as a kid

You are truly amazing...

So who taught you these skills? Or are you just so smart you picked them up on your own?

the sewing I picked up doing historic reanctments, the knitting & crocheting from my original mother

wow... neat... you just amaze me sometimes...

How about cross stich, ever done any of that?

I'm not a great man for the technical terms of these things so er.. maybe

Counted cross stitch is worked from a graphed chart, where symbols in the little squares represent different colors of embroidery floss to be used. All stitches form an "x", and they're worked by stiching in the spaces between threads on even-weave fabric to form a picture of some sort. I've done tons of cross stitch....I still have stacks of finished pieces that I need to frame, or make into pillows, or christmas ornaments...

How about basket weaving?

I not done embroidery since i wuz at school, no to baskett weaving but I did do a bit of brass rubbing as a kid ...

Interesting...


Now, if I could just figure out what brass rubbing has to do with Cricket...

not a lot apart from the fact that it some thing to do if the match is rained off

I have a question ... this is Balwyniti, correct? So why do we have to know *how* to play Balwyniti Cricket? Shouldn't we just play?
