I am Christine, living in Southern Indiana. I crochet mostly baby items for charity. Crochet is relazing for me- keeps my hands busy and I enjoy finding new techniques to stretch my brain.
Thank you all for all the free patterns.

Welcome - isn't it great that you donate baby items. It's wonderful to have a hobby that you love and be able to help others at the same time!

Hi Christine: Welcome to CT. Glad you have joined our group! I am 66, retired and have four grandchildren. I crochet baby blankets for Project Linus. I have made a lot of blankets for NICU and a boys ranch too. I love to give them away!!!! Shirley

Thank you
Thank you all for the nice welcome.
I appreciate the information.
It is nice to know fellow corcheters or as Knots of Love calls them-- knotters.
The charity makes chemo hats, and now has started to take preemie blanket donations.
They have a strict list about yarn for hats.
I love giving things away, but the postage is getting out of control.

Hi Christine: I agree with you that the postage is getting out of sight. We have Project Linus mtgs every month except for June-August so I take my blankets with me to the mtgs so I don't have to mail them. Show us pics if you have them. I like that "Knotters". Have a good weekend. Shirley
