Happy Hooker

:D:cool:
Hi everyone, Now that I have your attention, my name is Inga. I have been crocheting for about 25 years, and about 9 years ago, a co worker showed me how to read and understand the crochet lingo and I have been crocheting "hooking" my fingers off. I would love to learn new patterns for children's clothing, nothing to fancy. Fun and useful and something that a boy or girl would not look at and say...that's nice...but I would not be caught dead in that.
I have also just recently, been sinking my needles into knitting! I am brand new at this and would love an easy design for toddlers and young children slippers.

Hello,

Welcome to the group! It is great to have you here! Here is a list of slipper patterns which may be helpful for you:

Its funny because my husband looks at the patterns and it makes no sense to him, and when I look at his programming code, I feel the same way.

Hi Inga! And welcome! Glad you decided to join us! Crocheting for younger children is fun! But once they get a little older it's harder to find things they would wear,like you said! I have a 4 year old granddaughter that really like when Grandma makes something for her! I have 5 grandchildren in all! Slippers are a good idea though!

That is a great suggestion! I think I have a few patterns for mary janes too.;)
