Well, hello. I'm new here, so I guess that means I get to talk about myself, one of my least favorite subjects. But, in doing so I will get to talk about crochet, one of my favorite. So...I'm 45 divorced, 2 children, 1 grand-daughter, no pets myself, althoughI enjoy playing with my boyfriends Two golden retreivers. I have been crocheting for about 25 years. I just finished my very first wire crochet project...most intriguing. I also knit, and cross stitch. I have made afghans for everyone in my family over the years. Until last year, I was like my mother in that "if it ain't flat, it ain't gettin' done." My inspiration to go beyond flat was a baby sweater pattern I found just after my grand-daughter was born. I'm up to my eyeballs with WIPs, and I hope to be able to post some pictures eventually. I don't have internet at home right now, and I work odd hours so who knows what will happen.
