Anyone else like me????

[butterflie]

No, I don't know why but I've always been able to pick up different projects/books I'm reading even, and fall back into the pattern or story. It drives people crazy that I do this lol

I think I would need to be a time lord like Dr WHO! That way I could keep regenerating and crochet more and more. Maybe I could even exist in paralell universes and crochet lots of things at the same time. How cool would that be!

[crochetluvknot]

yup

[CLLinda]

I do too. I have so many books that there is no way I could possibly even make one project from each book if I crocheted every day for the rest of my life.

 

We all have some issues, don't we?

:yayCount me in with the rest of you! I usually have some small project I carry in my purse to work on when I'm stuck waiting somewhere. I start more than one thing at a time and if I put it aside for very long I just may frog it and use the yarn for something else. I have patterns up to the rafters and many of them I save on CDs so at least those take up less room but I still have a box full of more and many books. I found a small booklet of afghan patterns the other day at the thrift store and I bought it even though none of the patterns appealed to me (maybe someday one of them will); it was only a quarter so I bought it. I think I have an addiction or something! I have a good size stash and when I add to it I sneak the bags in or leave 'em in the car so dh doesn't see that more yarn is coming in the house. You are in very good company!

I also have tons of free patterns. I keep them organized in a big 3ring binder. I bought those clear plastic sleeves and slide my patterns in them. I also divided them by catagory. So now when I am looking for a particular project I do not have to search a stack of papers.

Thank You to all who posted! . It is really comforting to know I am not the only one who has such an addiction.

 

I agree with everyone who says they have just as much fun looking for the patterns as they do crocheting. There are alot of times I just search and search. I feel like it's Christmas every time I find a new pattern to print out for free.

 

I have started a notebook with the patterns in the protective pages for the current pattern I am working on and the ones I want to do next.

 

I do always keep a bag with a small project ready to go to doctors etc. so I have something to do while waiting. This is usually my dishcloth/potholder time. These are the easier patterns that I don't have to concentrate real hard on so I can do them while I am out.

 

I keep saying that I am going to get my Christmas presents done so I can work on some of the things I want to do for myself, but the list just keeps growing. I'm sure I will be finishing presents on Christmas eve. But hey, that's the fun of it.

 

This really is a great group of people. I am amazed every day that there are so many people all over the world who can come together and share a passion with others just like me. Thanks so much to Amy and Donna. The Crochetville is a place of sanity for me to just chill out and take a bit of time and forget about "life".

 

You are all a wonderful group of people and I love it here.

God Bless all and I will pray that in the afterlife there will be enough time to crochet each and every project we find we want to do.

 

LOL,

Toni

Oh, yes, and I'm so frustrated because I want to be done with one project and start another. I just saw a pattern today that I wanted to buy to make myself a jacket, but I didn't because I knew I'd never get to it.
