Hello from Iowa!
Hello...My name is Skye and I am fairly new to crocheting, I learned maybe a month and a half ago. In that short time, I have made countless projects...a couple of afghans, baby blankets and hats, TONS of winter hats, stuffed animals, and am working on a scarf at the moment. I keep getting requests from people left and right, "can you make this?, can you make that? If I supply the yarn, will you do this?". I have finally found a hobby that I feel I am pretty good at and seems to come fairly naturally. I originally had dreams of being a knitter, but those dreams soon died when I found I could not finish a project and it just felt awkward and was confusing to me. A few people suggested I try my hand at crochet and what a difference! I also enjoy small sewing projects and baking. I came here looking for a place to get tips, find inspiration, and make friends. Thanks a lot!

Welcome Skye!
Wow, sounds like you're a fast crocheter if you have already made all of that. I also started out by knitting but like crocheting better because it is much faster although I must say I like some of the knitting patterns better! What kind of patterns are you most interested in?
