Hmm, talking about figuring out how to crochet things properly helping you makes me wonder if I just hold things wrong as well. I kind of gave up on crochet and knitting because they were too painful to keep up. Possibly sometime I'll look into that again and see if someone can help me figure out if I'm making it more complicated than I should. (I do that frequently with everything, so I wouldn't be surprised.)

And I like those mittens!
