Did any of you know Vice President Harris is a crocheter?

10. one of my great aunts taught me to chain when I was about 8 or 9

she did doilies so it was that string type stuff and teeny hook.
I did not really try to learn until I was 20 and those crocheted vests were The Thing. I failed miserably with that, but did OK with scarves and baby blankets.

With 3 babies due in Jan - March I have lots of crochet hours coming up.

I went for a long time without any projects but the past 3 years I have taken it back up and it has been very relaxing.

Back in the 1970s I had a ton of magazines with patterns. Now I just go to You TUbe and watch demonstration videos. I am addicted to them.

One thing I do miss: when I was crocheting in my 20s I lived in Cambridge MA and there were lots of yarn shops all around the Boston area. I have not had much luck finding yard shops here - choices are Michael's, JoAnne's and Hobby Lobby. I suppose Dallas may have one or two.

Ordering from the internet is the best option.
