AuthorI am a no nonsense kind of blogger. I hate pages filled with ads/pop-ups, and just a bunch of filler. I learned to crochet when I was about eight or nine by my grandmother. She was a tough teacher, if there were any mistakes she would rip the project out until she reached a spot she was happy with. Unfortunately I was engrained with that teaching style of perfection so it takes me a while to create patterns. If it's not perfect I am not posting it, unless I am looking for feedback which I turn to the lovely Facebook crochet groups for assistance. I have some patterns listed for free, they are untested so you may run into some questions which is fine feel free to reach out to me with any of those questions. Other than that I hope you enjoy my simple blog of fiberart. ArchivesCategories
