Thank you, Barbara G. I checked out the search engine, which I'm sure will be very useful, but as it was a recent post I will look in the newsletter. Thanks also to Krys for all her useful tips....

Thanks, Krys. I actually didn't see a lot of mitten patterns, but I appreciate your kindness.

Today I found an easy mitten pattern for children, but I can't see how to save it so that I can find it again! Also, there was a picture of several mittens on the first page of the site, but never...

I have a difficult time working with black and right now I'm making a black & white afghan for my sister. Since it's one round of each color, I don't think it will be as much of a problem as many...

My Japanese maple in the front yard is my favorite. It has a lovely shape and provides a lot of shade in the summer. I had dogwoods, but they are gradually dying off. This past winter was so cold...

Thank you so much for sharing this site. It is organized so well and has so many different crafts. Love it!

My favorite triangular shawl is from a book and that can't be shared, but many of the members in our crochet group simply crochet a long rectangle for a shawl. It should be the width from fingertip...

Since I have purchased yarn that was sold as perfect and been disappointed with knots, I would say that you got a very good bargain! A woman in our crochet group bought Sashay which had several...

Your blankets are lovely! The multi-colored one looks like a labor of love!

Thanks so much, Teresa! While not exactly the same pattern I was seeking, your 3rd option offered so many choices including the 'Converse sneaker' bootie pattern that I had forgotten about. I know...

Does anyone have the link for a recent pattern for a baby bootie with a ribbed top like a sock has? I saw it recently, but after a great deal of trouble getting on the internet now that I can, I no...

Two suggestions for twin faye regarding keeping one's place on a pattern. One is to purchase a small magnetic board with a straight magnetized ruler which can be moved as you progress from row to...

These are all beautiful, but I agree with Tracy that I would be most likely to try the center one first. Fabulous!

Too cute! I'm sure whichever way you choose will look great and be so appreciated!

My first (and so far only) booties were made many years ago. They never appeared anywhere and never will! My sister very kindly thanked me for the gift for her first born and never commented on all...

I'm late, but I measure from crown to bottom of ear, especially for little ones. I add enough after that in order to have a cuff to turn up for the youngest children to keep their ears warm. Older...

I am a member of a senior citizen crochet group and while we do donate lapghans and prayer shawls year round, we especially love the holidays when we make a lot of hats and scarves for children. We...

Thanks for your input. Shirley. I believe I will follow your mother's and your lead and start giving the stash away now. AND only buy enough for the next project regardless of sales. There are so...

I did counted cross stitch for years and then decided to take an evening class at the local high school in Quakertown PA. I was glad to learn some pointers that I was not familiar with, but anyway I...

Anne,
Thank you so much! I absolutely love the sheep...he looks like he's wearing glasses, which will match the majority of our members. I just can't wait to share with the group. I know everyone...

Anne,
Please don't put yourself in a stressful position. I can certainly wait until you have time. You have had a lot of responses to your kind offer. Take your time, please.
Warm regards,
Susan

Hi Anne,
I am not sure that I am contacting you correctly, but I will try again. What you are doing is so kind and generous and I am sure quite time consuming, but if you have time here is our...

Sheric,
My aunt bruised horribly and a cosmetics saleswoman provided the perfect coverup which might interest your sister-in-law for those times when she may not wish to wear gloves. I know this is...

How very generous of you! I don't make labels but just print our group's name, address and name of items we are donating. Most recipients are anxious to know the donor so that they can send a thank...

I agree that your shawl looks lovely. If the problem is that it doesn't look like the pattern and you are disappointed, if it was mine I would finish it and seek help next time to get the results...
