Greetings to one and all,

A little about myself. I have been married to my husband for 44 years. We have two wonderfull children living close by. I recently retired after spending 41 years in classrooms. I have been crrocheting for years. My mother taught me around 1955. My first projects were simple dollies. I have made 3 queen size spreads which took forever. Most recently I have been doing hats for the nursery of the local hospital. I have also donated several items (sweaters, hats, scarves, bibs, blankets, shrugs) to the local battered women's shelter. Now I am interested in doing potholders, hotpads, table runners, dishclothes, etc.
I have been using patterns from the 50's and 60's. I am finding many knew stitches that I find interesting and confusing. So I will probably be asking several questions and anxious for your replies. All I ask is that you be patient with me. Thanks for offering this service to all with questions that need answered
