Oh I am very much a wing it girl…
I find it hard to follow patterns as my tension must be way out or something as they never turn out like they should…
I also love the feeling of de-cluttering…
It is wonderful…
It makes room for more stuff!!!lol…

Absolutely must have a pattern or I’m completely lost!

Love the granny square wreath–gorgeous. Another reason I must learn to crochet! Very intrigued by how you’ll be using the squares to modify your thrifting find!

I sometimes start off with a pattern but always end up winging it!
And the granny square wreath looks like an exciting project!!

Winging it all the way! Well done for getting the decluttering done – can’t wait to see your finished project

Sewing – I wing it as I pretty much know what I’m doing, but knitting I’m less confident so I stick to the pattern and am usually pleasantly surprised when I have the number of stitches the pattern says I should!
Please come round and declutter my house too!! I’m a terrible hoarder and keep things ‘just in case’!

Definitely winging it. Maybe I’m just too impatient to deal with reading all of the instructions and using a pattern. I do use patterns on occasion, though. Can’t wait to see your finished project.

I’d have to say working from a pattern, simply because I’m still a beginner really!! Can’t wait to see what the article of clothing is and what you’re going to do with it!

Yes, I too tend to wing it–though I think I’d save myself a lot of frustration if I used patterns more. I think there is value in following instructions from someone who has already worked out the kinks. But then again, I like the challenge of solving the problems that arise with a pattern-free project.

Your little granny squares are pretty!
