Hello from Maryland!

[Kevspepper]

Hi everyone!

 

I've been lurking :lurkabout here for awhile and decided to finally register.

 

I learned to crochet when I was a kid but only started getting serious for the past three/four years. I've become obsessed! I'm forever printing patterns and buying yarn. My thing right now is thread and cotton.

 

Plus, my daughter and husband think it's cool.

 

Anyway, just wanted to say hi and start posting.

 

Take care everyone!

Hi Susana, Welcome to Crochetville! I am from Maryland too! A little place called Middle River. It's in Baltimore County. Where are you from in Maryland?

[Kevspepper]

I'm in Laurel, Northern PG County. I'm spack in the middle of DC and Baltimore.

 

I've heard of Middle River, but have never been in that area.

HI!! I'm originally from MD too but living in No. Va now. Born and raised in Frederick, went to school at UMBC and College Park, lived in Knoxville, Millersville, and Crofton!

[Kevspepper]

You've been around Maryland like I have. I've lived in Hyattsville, Lewisdale, Waldorf, Greenbelt and Laurel! I'm stuck!

Your locationsare at least in the smae vicinity Except Waldorf. Thats a town I just don't get. Course my dislike for it comes mainly from taking 301 to Norfolk...on the way back we ALWAYS seem to get stopped at EVERY light--and you feel like you're so close to home if only they didnt have all those lights nad tractor trailers!

[Kevspepper]

You're right about the lights and tractor trailers. It's a nice enough town but there's nothing out there! You have to drive forever to get anywhere.

Thanks, everyone, for the welcome!

 

It's fun to come to a place where everyone loves the same things (well, at least one thing) as you do.
