Thanks so much ladies I really do appreciate this help. Ruth

We have made over 700 hundred hats for snowcaps here in Gresham, Oregon. Alot of the hats are made with the Knifty Knitting looms. My women are wanting to crochet hats for snowcaps.org Thanks in advance for any assistance. This means a lot to me. Kids are helpless and this is one way the senior center can help.

Crafty deb that really sounds like it. I love the other one as well. so many great idea's come from this group. I love it.

I really need some help. I saw an afghan today that is 2 sided (meaning that the pattern is done on both sides) and looks like it is crocheted at the same time. It looks like it is a shell stitch and a chain that connects front to the back side. Does anyone know the name of this pattern? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Is that the corner to corner afghan? I love that pattern it goes so fast and looks so beautiful when completed. Great work and a great organization to work with.

I am wondering if they teach this in high school.

Welcome to the group from a fellow Oregonian in Gresham-Ruth

I absolutely love this pattern. Great Job!!!!!

a fellow crocheter from Oregon. FYI Fabric Depot in Portland has a new crochet class on Wednesday from 6:30-8:30 at the 122nd and stark store. Tammy Jackson is the instructor. She is amazing and used to teach in Washington. Ruth

Hello our group of women at the senior center is making childrens hats for an organization that provideds hats for children. Our goal is to have 100 hats by the last monday of this month. SO we are seeking easy patterns that will go fast but also keep little heads warm here in Oregon. Thanks Ruth

I had corrected her a few times about crocheting and knitting and she still put knitting in the article at the end. I guess that I missed the first post.

A local reporter that heard about my grandson's flag afghan did a story. Here is the link with a picture of my grandson. I am so proud of the little guy at 11. http://www.theoutlookonline.com/features/story.php?story_id=121512345683768600

beautiful

very pretty tote, where did the pattern come from

The flag is out of a book that I have. I need to find the book and post which book it is. There are 49 starts on this flag and it is crocheted in a octagon shape and sewn together to make a square shape. I made this in a little over a week. It does go very fast.

I just finished this American flag for my grandson Allen in Pennsylvania. . Here is a link to pictures of the afghan. At a few points I thought my arms would fall off before getting it done-Ruth http://entertainment.webshots.com/album/559169403TCELHM

I have a difficult justifying paying $7.00 for a pattern. Especially when there are so many online at other sites. I have spent $3.00 for pdf patterns. Money is very tight in our house and I could never justify paying that much.

I love it,,very inspiring

I teach crochet at the senior center where I live. I promise them if they give me 2 hours they will be able to crochet. So far every one of them have. I love the expression on there faces. Ruth

very inspiring

I start out doing the first 3 rows in black to eliminate the bulkyness. I using a darning needle to weave in the yarn at the center. I make sure that I leave at least 9 inches for this. good luck-Ruth

Well the stadium bag and then this.................LOL I want to do it all

MMMMMM...thinking of some collage kids that would love these.
