Hi, I'm somewhat new to crocheting. I've done a few tidbits here and there but nothing big until now. I made my daugher a blanket and I had a really hard time ending a stitch without having a huge string dangling. My husband is sure I'm doing something wrong. I've looked a few places and haven't...

Can anyone tell me where this site went?

I'm posting this in order to help a senior citizen who lives in NYC and who can't use a computer. She's about 75, her brain works fine, she does beautiful crochet work and knitting, and she lives in Manhattan, in New York City, with her 86 year old husband, who is suffering from dementia induced by...

I made the mistake of frogging a project and starting over with yarn I purchased a year ago, and now I've found that I can't find the same color yarn to finish the new project I'm making. I've found two of the colors, but one I'm still missing. It's so stupid since it's just Red Heart Supersaver...

Hi !! My name is Tammy !! I am a beginner crocheter (when I first started crocheting I didnt realize there were so many other types of stiches.

Gail just purchase me a new book! "200 Crochet blocks" by Jan Eaton. It is all 6 inch squares. So now I will have no problem picking out new squares for the exchange. I already tried out 2 of the patterns last night. So I am ready for next months. :) Hugs & God bless, Dennis & Gail

I just bought this mag and there are some wonderful designs in it. I'm starting to think I might become a felted bag fiend, and there is a gorgeous bag in this issue. Shelagh

I know I've been MIA and not posting much, but I'm still out here. Alexander started kindergarten on Thursday and I was a bit weepy all day. I can't believe my baby is so grown up. He has a great teacher and she and I get along really well (in contrast to his preschool teacher who didn't...

What kind of things do you do with odd balls? Ophelia

I found a web site that really helped me figure out afghan stitch now I can make a square instead of triangles, I was going under the wrong place for the last stitch. Now I'm looking a a good site that shows how to change yarn and so on for using graphs, and any good tips, WHat's your favorite...

Hi everyone, I emailed Susan this evening to see if she and her family were all right as she lives in Florida. I heard right back and yes they are safe and sound, a tree branch on the roof of the house, but no other damage. I'm waiting to hear from Stella. Hugs, Nora

Hi and thanks for all the good wishes. We are still having near constant rain here in Gainesville. I think other areas are clear and at least able to get back into clean-up. We, on the other hand, are still in a deluge. I worked all day yesterday at the nursing home with no power except...

Has anyone seen Michelle from St. John's lately? I know that, with three little ones, she must have getting ready for school, but it feels as though I haven't seen her for a while. I don't know if I am missing posts or if she is missing. Katherine
