Newbie from NY
Hi all! I'm a newbie here, but not a newbie to crocheting or knitting Mom's been teaching me that stuff since I was eight! I'm a dance teacher and a dancer and a 20yo college student (this semester I'll get my AA in Fine Arts Humanities and will be going for a degree in Elementary Education:English and minoring in theater arts and dance).
I am constantly on the search for patterns! For both knitting and crocheting! I just got a book for Christmas called Top-Down Knitting and I was just in utter heaven looking at the patterns. What are some of your favorite Crochet Pattern books? I'll look them up and add them to my wishlist on Amazon!

Hi Everyone....I am the proud Momma of The_Yarn_Tangled_Banner.....I can sure tell you all she is one very busy girl! She made most of her Christmas gifts, and was on the Dean's list for the 3rd time! I am also so pleased that we work together at the dance studio. She is a wonderful dancer also...(can you tell I am her mom....hahaha)

Hello,
Welcome to Crochet Talk! It is a pleasure to have you here on site with us! We always love to have another member here who loves to crochet! Thanks for joining us!
I do most of my searching for crochet patterns on the internet. I do have one book that I really enjoy for a reference and it is called "The Crochet Handbook & Stitch Guide." I have others but they are packed right now as we are anticipating a move.
