Hello! I have just joined today! I found this group in the process of looking for an English translation for a Russian pattern for a Crochet Clioche hat. There were some others looking for this back in 2013. Someone from this sight did the translation and was emailing to interested people. I would love to get a copy if anybody knows what I am talking about, they are decorated with crocheted flowers. I learned to crochet from my grandmother when I was a child. I learned to knit about 8 years ago. I got back into crochet last year when a friend asked me to crochet an amigurumi turtle, it was amazing and I was hooked! My Mom found the pattern for the little girls summer clioche hats and I have been asked to make two for two little sisters. By the way....the amigurumi turtle pattern was in Russian as well!

Hi everyone,
I am not exactly new, but this is my first post. i have crocheted since I was 6 years old. Our neighbor taught me the basics and since then Its been self teaching since then. I am just starting to really get back into it. Five years ago I got sick and pretty much lost the use of my hands, fine motor skills anyway. Last year I just decided to try again, and believe it or not it help. I can crochet now anyway. Thats just a little bit about me I just wanted to say hi.

Hi
I joined this site to communicate with others who love to crochet. I made only baby afghans for friends and coworkers. And then stopped when I moved to our retirement area. We love it in western Colorado. I started crocheting again last year when we were expecting a great granddaughter. Now I have been making hats and characters. I'm now working on Ariel from frozen. I finished a schnauzer and two elephant hats for new babies.. These are so much more fun than an Afghan.
