My grandmother taught me to crochet, now I am a grandmother. Even so I just learned how to make a crocheted flower and have already spent way too much time on youtube looking at all the variations of flowers.

Welcome to the Forum. I make doilies

Hello and welcome!

Nice to meet you and glad you joined us! Please make yourself at home, take some time to look around, and also let us know if you need help with anything!

You must have a lot of patience. I made doilies when I was 13, a whole set dresser scarf, night table etc. It was the pineapple pattern. The closest think I have done in the more recent years has been angel xmas tree ornaments, I made one for each grand-daughter, copied from one a friend had. I have some afghans started by my mom and aunt that I inherited, finishing them is in the "to do" category. More recently I have made scarves and hats and now I am doing those headband/ear warmer things, that is why I learned to do the flower. I have spent too much time looking at all the variations but now I feel I can do my own. Good way to use some of that leftover yarn.

Thank you Barbara, there is an afghan my mom made for me that I can't figure out the stitch. I am going to take a picture and maybe someone will be able to help me with that.

That is a beautiful dog. The past 2 years have been the first in my life that I am without a dog. But I had 2 cats and now one of my neighbor's many has decided she would rather live here too.
