coppertop Posted October 31, 2010 Hello everyone, my crochetville name is coppertop. I just joined today. I've been crocheting for a year this October. I LOVE it!! I have a decent amount of projects made, I also have a bunch of WIP's going though. My friends tease me that I suffer from "craft ADHD" I'm always starting new things up even though I'm working on 4 - 10 things already, I'll see something in a book/magazine/online & I just HAVE to try it!! The project I'm most proud of making is from the March/April Crochet Today magazine, the Swaddling Baby Blanket. I have been so afraid to try FPdc, but I finally went onto Nexstitch watched a video, started stitching away, I was also worried about using RH Pomp-a-doodle, it was SO easy, got a little harder as I did more rounds of it, but nothing to be afraid of after all. My husband & I will be married 13 years this year. We have 2 sons, 2 dogs These are a few of my favorite things : October Halloween Green Spending time w/ my family That's a little about me. Thanks!!

DebbiePooh Posted November 7, 2010 from Kentucky. After learning the fp and bp stitches it has become my favorite too. I've been crocheting 43 years now but just recently found this site too (last week - still a newbie). Need help, just give a shout Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
