Crochet what a lady like pastime

I have an unnatural aversion to the beautiful and lady like trend of crochet and lace. This could be due to several reason.

Firstly crochet is the one craft that has always eluded me, leaving my fingers tied in knots.
Secondly I have a stepmother whose fashion muse is Stevie Nicks. You can laugh all you like but it has provided my sister and I with endless fancy dress options come Halloween.

But the most likely reason is that in the early 90’s my mother had the same idea when styling lace dresses as Anna Del Russo. I managed to overcome the mental scarring but it’s a lot to live up to!
