I used to crochet doilies a lot. In fact I have the entire collection of Magic Crochet magazines minus 2 which I am still trying to find. I find diagrams much easier to follow than written...

Wonderful! I have the pattern and want to make this, but have no place to put it.

Welcome fairylady! I too had a freak stroke caused by medication and returned to crocheting as a means of keeping me sane. Now it is a way of life for me. I am addicted. I crochet while watching TV,...

Happy March birthday! I wouldn't worry about Friday the 13th. I was born on March 15 - The Ides of March - and have made it through 68 years of this unlucky date. In fact my son was born early on...

I am making this scarf now, hope it turns out as pretty as the picture.

I try to remember to take pictures. Unfortunately my memory is not that good! Seriously, 34 years ago I made doilies to order (when I was a new mother and not working). I really regret not taking...

I would have to name mine "Hooker's" (which also happens to be my maiden name, sigh....)

This is our present display. Items are made by our local hospital's Auxiliary Arts & Crafts Group. We are doing well, especially with the Minion items and the pumpkin...

Great work!

My Nana's next door neighbour taught me to knit when I was 5. I loved to make outfits for my baby doll. I taught myself to crochet when I was 21. It helped keep me awake on long overnight flights...

Our evenings go this way: we eat dinner while watching the evening news. I do dishes while the Master of the TV Controller flips channels and decides what We want to watch for the evening. I sit...

Michael's and Walmart are the only ones close to me. Also a Tuesday Morning which occasionally has different yarn. But I shop anywhere and everywhere. Thrift stores, Goodwill, yard sales, etc. I also...

Same here Roe. If I just watch TV 9 times out of 10 I will fall asleep. My husband used to get really mad when I picked a movie and quickly fell asleep. Now that I crochet when I watch TV, this is...

Happy Mother's Day to my friends on Crochet Talk!

I usually don't have any problems downloading Ravelry patterns, but I watched the video anyway. Charles, it was clear and concise and gave me a couple of ideas about storing patterns in my Ravelry...

All I can say is WOW!

I crochet every day, usually after dinner until bedtime. I also crochet in the car (when my husband is driving!). I used to fly quite a bit and always had crocheting with me. I always have a number...

Chain 1, turn, then do your stitch in the first stitch of the previous row, not in the chain 1

These are wonderful! I'm going to ask my jewelry making friend if she could do this.

I have been shopping in our local Michael's store for over 5 years and have never seen their Soft and Shiny yarn. I guess this store does not carry it. They have Red Heart Soft and Caron's Simply...

I agree with Susie. That's what I do. I just didn't explain it so good.

When I am making a hat and it calls for a chain 3 for a double crochet at the beginning of the row, I chain one and then make a double crochet in that first space. When joined the chain one gets...

I had just subscribed to Crochet Today! I got Mollie Makes in the mail yesterday! As you said Jenni, Mollie Makes is a very nice publication, but NOT what I subscribed to.

I am a Yarnaholic and I love going to thrift stores to find yarn. I am lucky in that I am a member of our local hospital's Auxiliary and am chairman of the Craft group. The Auxiliary also runs a...

The things either side of the purse are for cell phones.

I'm happy to say everything sold, with orders for 3 more Minion hats and 2 purses. Yay!
