I'm murnah, I've been crocheting since I was 13 or 14 years old. if my math is correct it's been 40 soooooooooooomthing years.
My mom taught me the basics. Single/Double crochet and how to make a granny square. Everything else is self taught. I can read a pattern book but most of my work is my own. Even when I use a pattern I prefer to change it up and put my own twist to it
right now I do mostly stuffed animals.
My currant project that I'm working on is for my brothers granddaughters which include a baby owl, a turtle and a monkey. My nieces fourth and final child is a boy and due in January. His stuffed animal will be of all things a porcupine. I haven't figured that one out yet but I just finished the last of the first three.
At the moment I don't have a printer or WiFi access here but as soon as I can I'll post some pictures of my work..
Hahaha! A porcupine! I think I wanna see that one! Good Luck. I have trouble with the patterns that have the loops for hair and such, I don't understand how to do it.
