so, i thought i would post some encouragement for myself. see, i think i have mentioned that i can actually crochet. i have done it before, not like granny squares or anything - just a simple scarf. i had a bit of a dig around in my scarf stash and found it - proof of what now seems to be a past-life-ability to crochet.
and i also found this scarf, which i bought when i lived in nepal and i thought i'd post it too. i always find bright colours encouraging - don't you?
This week … homey and possibly boring things …

Don't give up! Just try a granny square - i'm sure if you can crochet that scarf then you would be a whiz at crochet squares!
p.s. Where in Nepal did you live & do you have any good advice for people about to travel there? - my husband is taking a 4 week trip to Nepal with his school (& 26 teenagers) in July - he's going all over the place and then helping to rebuild a school in an isolated village! (i'm very jealous of all of these things)
Hang in there Beccles!!! You obviously just have a case of 'crochet-ers' block. It'll come back to you, I know it will.
Have you looked at Teresa's tutes on YouTube? There are many out there and I'm sure some are better than others.

Good luck!
thanks guys - i took your advice and now i can crochet!
as for nepal, i lived in a fairly remote region in the mid west in a town called surkhet (not on the tourist trail). it was a few years ago now, so i am not sure what advice to give, but if you have any specific questions - feel free to ask and i will give it a go.
