Swede joining :)

[undinen]

Hi all!

Swedish girl here. Living in south of Sweden, 36 year old, working in IT. Loves to crochet. Mother and grandmothers and women before that, have always been crocheting and knitting. I have tried to learn how to knit, but crocheting is my favourite. I have mostly been crocheting amigurumis for myself and friends. I have mostly used single crochets and now trying to learn more techniques. 

I love vintage and my goal is to be able to crochet berets, hats, table cloths, cardigans etc. My aunt owned a yarn shop before so I have looots of yarn in my tiny apartment So I will be able to keep myself occupied I am also into sewing and sew mostly clothes from 1850-1905 and recently started with 1920-1950s clothes. My favourite era is 1930-1940. Of course clohtes from 1880 are lovely but not very comfy

I am new to english crocheting patterns and terms, so therefore I am here. I have tried getting help in Swedish forums, but noone knows what it means when I ask about  English & American terms, techniques and such. I hope to be able to get help and also help others ❤️ 

Attaching a photo of my last finished project: a poo made as a gift

I wish you a pleasant week from snowy Sweden ❤️

Best, 

Emelie
