I once knitted my late husband a nice black sweater, but bound off the very last row (turtle neck collar) so tightly that it nearly tore off his eyebrows! ;o) --- TJ! Good to see you! You say you might want to try that when things slow down for you, but you're about as busy a person as I've ever seen! I can see you learning this when you're an old old lady in a rocking chair! *LOL* --- PK ... hey there! Thank you! How are you and Don doing? I need to get over to see you. Hopefully I'll get to do that once I take my final this week. --- Nora - you're the sweetest person on two feet! *LOL* All of those nice words coming from a super lady who sent me some of the very best jams I've ever eaten in my whole life! You, my friend, are amazing! {{{ hugs!!! }}} --- Lakshmi - my dear heart, you know how to do a lot of things that I can't even imagine ... not the least of which is that lovely Indian cooking! Tying knots in string is much easier than it appears to be ... ;o) --- Pattie, my dear friend! Thank you! You're right about hands cramping up ... that happens the first few days I begin to work on a project like that, but passes after a while. I usually don't even notice when it does finally stop happening. I do enjoy Tunisian Crochet - tremendously. It's probably the only type of "art" that I still take the time to do.

The pattern on that one actually looks quite intricate to me. I can just imagine the amount of time and energy (and love) that must go into making such a beautiful creation. I myself cannot see knitting one of those. I think after a few rows, my hands would cramp up *LOL* I love the colors! The pattern on that one actually looks quite intricate to me.

Anyone who can make something out of pieces of string always amazes me. When I was young, I learned to make chain stitches, but I never could attach anything to them. Never learned to knit either. I made a few blocks of fabric into quilts - didn't look to cool but kept the kids warm. please post a picture of Sena's afghan when it is finished. I would love to see it, AND some new photos of Sena. Moofie, you are too much!! Anyone who can make something out of

I've done all that stuff in my time. I've knitted since I was twelve although don't do it so much now. I did crochet and have tried the afghan crochet with everything on the one long hook. As you say, it makes good fabric. I do thank heaven that crocheted clothing has gone out of style. I once crocheted a dress for myself,in the seventies. Hi Moof,

Thank you, my dear ... I would love to see your crochet work, by the way ... :o) --- Vijay ... you're too funny! As a younger person, I was mostly into art, poetry, and all sorts of craftsy stuff ... and now I'm just the opposite. Never saw the change hit me, but hit me it did. Of all of the artsy stuff I used to do, designing items for this sort of crochet is all that's left. --- Angel - the pattern for Sena (my new granddaughter) it taking shape. I have the first panel almost done. I have a vague idea of what I'm trying to do ... we'll see how it turns out. :o) Wolfbaby, my sweet little friend, there’s lots and lots that I can’t do.
