___ Other? ___________________
I like to have 3 projects going at once with different size yarns. This helps keep my old hands from getting sore. I love trying new stitches and making up my own patterns. I love making doilies and have to search for ideas of what to do with them! Now with 4 grandchildren, I have not made doilies in a while. For some reason I do not enjoy making amigurumi.
I am new to the group. I will try to post some pictures soon.

Please copy the text between the horizontal lines.
Then beside each type of project, please enter in order of your favourites, which type of project you like to do. # 1 = most favourite, #15 = still like to make it, but not as much as the others.
"RULES" You can have a 3-way tie at the most, but no 4-way or higher ties.

thanks for sharing. So baby clothes, eh? Do you have little ones in your family or extended family who receive your finished items? Or charities?

So you are more of a marathon runner than a sprinter, eh! The long haul project appeals to you more than the quick finish. I admire your stick-to-it-tiveness!

Yes I have 3 daughters, 4 grandsons, one granddaughter and one one the way! I've been crocheting in spurts for most of my life. I am allergic to wool so my local yarn store saves me cotton yarn that has been around too long for a good price. My preference is cotton plus acrylic. I have enough yarn to supply an army!

yes, I like to do projects that take time. I am working on 2 blankets now that I started last summer. Just about to finish one which will probably be my favorite project of all time! When I figure out how to post pictures I will post one in progress.
