    Greetings from Oregon

    Just a quick note to introduce myself.
    Hi everyone.
    I go by oldnfluffy as that is what I am, old and undoubtedly fluffy, or mushy as my granddaughter puts it.
    I am a beginner crocheter. I've been learning new stitches using youtube and other tutorial videos.
    I enjoy crochet it helps me right now, I lost my husband in May, 4 days after our 25 anniversary, we had almost 30 years living together.
    I am interested in learning how to make my own patterns/creations. Like a Skyrim afghan for a Christmas gift.
    I understand that being a beginner that is a BIG bite. But I think I can do it if I really try.
    Have a great day all.

    Hello and welcome from Arizona! My condolences to you and your family for the loss of your beloved husband.
    It is wonderful that you are eager to learn how to design your own patterns! Do you have stitch pattern books, to use as a design reference?
    Again, welcome to the forum!
