Hi,
Yes, I love the internet for free patterns, free tutorials and the wealth of knowledge we can get off it. Oh how great it would have been for me years ago when I was first learning to crochet. People just learning today have such a huge advantage.
Plus I love to see what others have made, it gives me a lot of inspiration and direction.
Keep those fingers moving folks.

Hi Everyone
Hi everyone
I just joined the CrochetTalk community. I am splitting my time between Illinois and Rhode Island at the present time. Since my boyfriend has basically been in the hospital since Sept 10th, I have been getting a lot of crocheting done. Don't know how much time I will have to check into this site as I spend 12 to 14 hours at the hospital on a daily basis.

Hi Mindy,
I too am new to the CrochetTalk community. Let me welcome you. I love to hear about projects others are making.
I grew up in Carpentersville, IL. myself, but I have lived in Va. and N.C. all of my adult life with just a brief 2 1/2 years in NJ in the '80s.
I am sorry to hear about your boyfriends illness and and I wish him all the best. I know for me crocheting helps me through times of stress and worry. And now they say it is good to lower blood pressure too.

I teach crocheting at a local museum and refer my students to the Internet quite often. I, too, am amazed at the bounty of good things out there.

Yes, Welcome to Crochet Talk. Its great to have so many new names on the list and so much new stuff to talk about. Sorry to hear of your boyfriend, hope he recovers soon. Yes, crochet does help keep the hands and mind busy at times, especially when troubled. Misty
