Hello fellow crochet lovers! I'm Cyndi from Gainesville, FL

Hello folks,

I'm on this computer trying to learn new crochet skills and find unique patterns. As a child, at the tender age of 12 my father built a small shopping center and my mom had a store called "The Yarn Basket" in a small town called Arcadia, FL. Unfortunately, at that age I was not really interested in crafts, crochet, yarn, etc. Now that my mother has passed away I have been crocheting and I sure miss her. I could use help figuring out some of the patterns I find as well as learning difficult stitches. That's why I am signed up with Crochet Talk. I think it's wonderful that we have these valuable resources today with the internet.

I have gathered so many patterns and links that I am thinking of putting together a website to share with folks.

At any rate, it's a pleasure to be here and thank you for your help in advance!

Cyndi

Hi Cyndi welcome to our little group. Like you I lost my mom and miss her very much and I find that crocheting is a good therapy.
If you have questions please don't hesitate to ask there are so many crocheters on CT with a wide variety of skill levels
