    Intro - Darcy

    Hi!
    I decided to learn how to crochet about 11 years ago when i got married and realized i had NOTHING in common with my new mother-in-law. Of course, she moved on to knitting and spinning once she found out i was crocheting, lol. but i have stayed a crocheter and love it!
    Hugs,
    Darcy

    Hi Darcy!

    Welcome to Crochet Talk! LOL. Learning how to crochet to "get along" with your mother-in-law must have been a challenge. But I'm glad that you benefited from it at the end. I also love to crochet. It's my first love but now I'm starting to get interested in knitting as well. I find knitting a whole lot challenging though. I find crocheting faster coz all I have to use is just one hook. I can even multitask while crocheting and totally not look at the pattern anymore while watching tv, talking with friends, or listening to music.

    Anyway glad to have you on board and I'm really interested in hearing about your projects and especially that quaint little owl that you have there on your avatar. See you around dear!

    Hi Darcy, great to have yet another member adding on to the growing community here on crochettalk! I think teaching oneself to crochet or knit is the best way to become really good at it...not that I have not seen experienced and talented crocheters that learned from their mum, granma or a teacher. I do not have much in common with my mother-in-law either!!
