One of my kids has finished her ball of thread -- the one doing finger crochet. I have finished mine and decided I wanted more lace, so I added another ball and I am continuing to crochet lace. The oldest hasn't finished her ball yet, but she is steadily working on it. My middle daughter seems to have hit a wall and hasn't progressed much. However, that is normal for her; she usually is a little more timid on picking up new skills. In time, she will go gangbusters on it when she is more comfortable with it all. But I may switch her over to tatting before she gets this because tatting may be a little easier for her to manipulate. I know that sounds odd, but it's true. Tatting is actually easier than most people think, especially if you start with chains and not rings, make a yard of chain, then make a foot of chain with picots, then switch to rings, and then join; then you have it.
I love the laces you all are doing. I'd like to try the zig-zagged one~I'm new at crochet, but it looks do-able. ;)
