I don't like working with cotton yarn.

I had read about it on a couple of news feeds last week, the one I referenced tonight was a new one I found when I Googled her name.

I find the prices at Michael's and A.C. Moore are always better than those at Hobby Lobby or Joann's. My favorite is A.C. Moore, just wish there was one located a little closer to my location.

I just finished a Christmas stocking. Our group makes stockings for soldiers and we are starting early this year to make sure we meet the number requested.

My most favorite place is A.C. Moore but I only get to shop there when I visit my daughter. I normally shop a Michael's, Walmart, Tuesday Morning, Big Lots and occasionally Ollies.

Can I just thank you for bringing up this subject? We only have a Michael's in my area and I have never seen mill ends offered in any of their stores. I am visiting my daughter in North Carolina...

Could it be nylon net and fun fur crocheted together (1 strand of each)?

Sounds good to me. I don't see how you could make it any better. I love the idea of "NO GAP"!!!! Thank you.

I also bought the kit and found a pattern book. The problem is, I put them away for future use and now I have no idea where they are. I'm sure one of these days I will "luck" upon them when I am...

kayemory, I use Red Heart, Lion, Caron and anything else I can find on sale. If some people want to act snobbish about using expensive yarn, so be it. I just wonder how many of them donate projects...

I have found that when I get frustrated with a pattern and it is not working out for me, the best thing to do is put it away for a while. My first stocking cap pattern did not make sense (to me...

You might try your parks and recreation department. The other suggestions regarding churches and senior citizens groups are good too. Our group meets through our parks and rec department - the...

Okay sweeth2opearl, now you know the real meaning of frog but I really just think of it as "Forever Ripping Out Goofups"!

I learned with a crochet beginner's book (Teach Yourself To Crochet) and still use the written pattern. I do like to watch the videos, then click on the link for the pattern - it seems to help me...

It means to rip out stitches - to frog it - rip it, rip it, rip it.

Susan MJ, I do like it here very much. I usually spend Fridays with a friend recovering from a stroke. She was also member of the group and we are all praying that she will mend and be able to come...

I think my all time favorite thing was a teddy bear. He had a brown head, brown paws and feet. From his neck to his wrist and ankles he had on red longjohns with the flap on the back. The cute...

I am with a group called Bennie's Blankets, we meet at the city rec center on Tuesdays and Thursdays (9:00 am to 11:00 am). We crochet and knit items for social services, nursing homes, cancer...

I think the trinity stitch would be my choice. It's not that hard to do but it's hard on the fingers - at least it's hard on mine.

I have used it many times and really like it. I taught it to a few of my crocheting friends and now we all use it.

Love, love, love those scarves!

Ginnie256, my friends tell me I don't charge enough - it's hard to know what to charge. The booties I just sold were 0 - 3 months size and had handmade flowers with beaded centers that I attached to...

Ginnie256, I tried that. Actually, a friend and I set up a a really big yard sale. The problem we ran into was that people wanted the prices to be really low - priced like yard sale items. If you...

Susan, it is local to my area. Last week I met a lady at our Martin's Supermarket parking lot. That's what I meant about the safety tips. You want to make sure it (unless you know the person) is a...
