My favorite combination of beauty and purpose! Thank you for sharing this!

Thank you so much for sharing this! I am grateful!

Thank you for sharing this!

Oh, I know where Arlington Heights is! My hubby grew up in Caseyville!!!

Hi everyone!

I guess, being a history fan, I am a little more particular about my 'scrapghans'. I do the 'forever granny' deal, just go round and round until it's big enough to have to start a new...

On that same page there should be a link to create one. Once you click that and give your new album a name, then you will see it under that tab. Until you create one, it will continue to say "no...

My Grammy used to say "Tough times will not get you through days without blankets, but blankets will help you get through tough times." She said that whenever Gramp complained about her 'always...

Hi, teapot1640.
I know your original post was from last year. But I thought I would offer a few suggestions anyway.

I am a Leukemia patient and I know there are three things that really make...

I hadn't gotten anything since mid July. I went to the site to re-join in case I was accidentally dropped or something and it says I am already signed up....so I don't know what gives.

Don't give up completely, ginny2228. It takes time to get the gauge right. As with learning anything new, try it for a bit, then put it aside for a bit. If you overly-frustrate yourself with it, you...

The one I am working on is similar to the one found at this link that someone offered earlier, except it uses ripple-in-the-round for the tail and wings, and it has "Straw" attached to the bottom of...

I am working on the body of the hen now. It's going to be a while before I get the body shaping figured out. But wanted you to know I am still working on it. :)

Is it permissible to post my pattern/work in progress here, or do I need to find a blog-site to put it on? Could a moderator let me know.? I know there are places to post pics. but this would be...

Sure! That will give me time to play! Hehehehehehe! :D

Well, Shaddy, here's what i have done so far.

I came up with a way to make the head portion and then increase to go along the top of Hen's back to fit to the other end of basket (I used an oval...

Hi there,

I didn't come up with anything in my research either. SO, when i want something I can't find, I try to find a way to make my own design of it. I know my Grandmother had one on her table...

Make your chain, join your circle, then start your first round of patterns stitch. When you catch up to where you started Row 1, instead of joining to finish the round, turn your stitch down while...

The economy is going to push that 'bic throw-away' attitude out the window very soon. They will want to learn because they won't have nice things otherwise. I already have a large-ish class for...

I use the crochet thread to make doilies, also to make dresses for my granddaughter's fashion dolls. I also tat. I make snoods, lace, bookmarks, potpourri sachets, and I tat and crochet chapel veils.

It also helps to work your stitches a bit loosely if possible (it depends on what you are making, I know.) It seems to get stiffer the tighter the stitches have to be.

I figured it out. When you decrease (DC 2 tog) you are only decreasing by 4 in the 'valleys' but since you are doing 5 puff stitches for each 'peak' you are adding 5. Therefore you are gaining 1 for...

Oh, I should have read all the replies. I see you found the link you were missing. I thought you were looking for the emails themselves. Sorry for misunderstanding.

Had you checked your "Spam Mail" folder? Several of the email engines had done a security update, including Yahoo, Gmail, and Cox cable recently to protect your contacts lists better after the last...

Hi,
I think I saw this online (it was a different color, mind you) but I think it is called a "Shell Purse" and I was surfing YouTube for different tutorials on making different things with crochet....

Try going to Crochet Patterns, Free Crochet Pattern and typing in "Shrug" in the search. They have tons.
