Hi, just want to introduce myself. I used to be an avid crocheter, but after several serious illness was unable to crochet. Now I feel like a newbie, just re wetting my feet. Looking forward to starting with an EASY pattern. Ordered one but still waiting for it in the mail. Looking forward to learning the site
and making a few crochet buddies in the process!

welcome from Pa. Just pick your needle back up and you will remember how to crochet. It would be very nice to have you for a friend. I have been a avid crocheter for over 30 years.

Hi Chris, I love your Desertflower name! My hubby & I love New Mexico. I am happy you are in better health now and able to take up crocheting again. It is such a stress-reliever for me (unless I'm under the gun to finish a project in a short time). You will make many friends here on Crochet Talk. Hope I'm one of them!
Hugs, Jo
