From the hills of Maine

Hi! I would like to introduce myself: I am Marie and I started sewing at 8 yrs old. I started crocheting when I was 16-18 yrs olds. I taught myself by doing a small ripple afghan. I was missing something bec the edges were curling so my neighbor helped me and it was perfect after that. I like making doll clothes but I want to try the amigurami too. My dolls are infant, 3yr old sizes and 18" dolls. I live on a mountain and winters are long inside so I always keep busy. I was taught basic knitting when I was 8 yrs old by another 8 yr old. Only half of what I make gets finished. I put it down and loose track of where I was. When I had 4 kids at the house They each had an afghan and a scarf. My nieces each had a sweater. I made a lot of granny sq afghans with scraps , some were gifts. But I don't care for making them now. All talents can be improved on even if it's by learning one stitch!!

Welcome  to Crochetville from the Gulf Coast of Florida.

Grab your yarn and hooks, put your feet up and sit a spell.

We are always so glad to meet new friends.😁
