I have been crocheting since i was around 10 when my mom taught me .
about 20 years ago i made my parents a king size blanket , my mom has passd on
and now my 25 yea old son has it on his bed . that makes me happy .
and you wouldnt believe how soft it is after having been washed so many times .
anyway , havent made anything in years , ready to start back up . this site looks

I started crocheting in my teens and have done so for over 65 years.  I make a variety of items, from afghans to hat and amigurumi.  The picture I use as an avator is an outfit I designed myself and crocheted the hat and the applique on the blouse.  The skirt is sewed as is the bow on the hat.  I made several of these for granddaughters, great-granddaughters and great-nieces.  Also make snow outfits and Minion outfits as well as other things for them.  I have done a lot of Tunisian crochet afghans also.  Made Disney ones for my grandchildren.  My own children had Raggedy Ann and Andy ones.

Thanks.  I love making things for others, especially the 18" doll clothes.  I make around 300 hats a year for a local organization to give out at Christmas time.  You guessed I live where there is real snow in the winter.

do you think knitting is harder than crochet? I'm thinking about trying to knit , but I'm intimidated by it

I've been crocheting for 2 years now i love it and also self taught. I'm a stay at home mom and just wanted to pick up a new hobby to kill time. It's also fun to do and you'll be surprised at the things you can make. I know i was.

Sorry for your loss, I've only just started but i have no issues yet. My last big issue was my amigurumi were inside out. Patterns assume you know that part ahead of time.

I've recently downloaded a Russian pattern by accident. You have to look before you download:) It happens to all of us at one time or another:)  Post time 2017-5-21 21:51
