Hello, everyone!

My name is Susan, but I think, that mostly everyone knows me, as I prepared posts for you every day.

I like to help people, that' s why I always do my best to find the most interesting pattern for my Crafters.

You can alwayas ask me to help finding the certain pattern and in most cases I manage to do this, as I use different sources for this. 

But I like to know my friends better, so, please, introduce yourself in the comments to this post.

Let's chat!

Hi Susan! My name is Cricket. I've been crocheting for over 50 years now and have loved every last stitch of it! I was taught how to make a granny square in the beginning, and have taught myself ever since. I've also taught many people over the years how to crochet. 

I also taught myself how to knit several years ago. I don't do this very often though. I''ll make a small simple project, then I go back to crochet. Just takes too long to knit, at least for me. 

Hope you have a Happy New Year!

Hi Susan,

I hope you get as much enjoyment out of your crocheting as I have over the years. It's also a great way to save money at Christmas or other gift giving times of the year. I have made many things and given them as gifts to family and friends. Even for my pets! And I have also made all my ornaments for my Christmas tree. Plus the skirt, and mantel edging. 

Happy New Year!

Hello Susan.  My name is Sonnetta. I have been crocheting for about 7 years now. I do other crafts as well.   I am a Christian lady and I love to help others and give to others. 

I never picked up the skill of knitting but I wont give up.  I am going to keep trying.  I love making things for Christmas and other holidays. My children say they enjoy getting something homemade from me for Christmas because they say it means more to them because of the love that is put into it.  I started crocheting because my late mother used to do alot of it and I wanted to keep her memory alive.  So I do it in her memory.  She also taught me to do plastic canvas.  God gave me the gift of crafting more 8 years ago and I am so grateful.  I am disabled and it helps me to relax.    Have a blessed New Year!

Thank you Susan.

I am going to see if I can get me one of those dvds to fit into my computer for beginners  and  try to  learn  from that.  I finally picked up crochet using a dvd that someone gave me because they didn't need it anymore.  It was nice because I could stop it  restart it  and be able to learn at my own pace.

Hi Susan,

I'm Gigi (Ginger) new to the site.  Glad to meet you.  I am 4 years retired and loving my crafting time.  My husband and I are venders a craft shows.  I do almost every craft and my most recent learned craft is locker hooking;  love it but killer on my hands.  I also am sort of new to my floor loom and love weaving.  My first craft was crocheting and I am semi learning knitting.  I find it much harder than my crochet skills of more than 40 years.  Merry Christmas.
