I just came here and saw your post. I also am looking for the postage stamp pattern. I had it and now I've lost it. Did you perchance find it, cause I sure would like to make this in a baby afghan.
Thanks

Hi, I'm from New Jersey. I've been crocheting for 35 + years. Had several web sites. Sold my work in several co-op stores. Was doing well, then RA hit.(rheumatoid arthritis)So, I decided to start a web site on information on crochet. I'm calling it Crochet Plus. The plus is for any craft I choose to write about. I'm still working on it, not open yet. But, what I am doing is giving lessons on crochet. By making little movies with me crocheting. There not bad, but have to watch how I hold my hands so the camera gets clear view. The reason for the web site, couldn't leave crocheting behind! I loved it sooo. And, yes I have books galore and some yarn and a lot of thread. That is what I specialized in, thread crochet. One last thing, if anyone needs a little help let me know. I would be happy to!

my name is erika, I am American and live in Atlanta, GA!

I crochet, which is the closet thing to domestic for me. I was taught to crochet by a Flight Attendant on an airplane. She taught me the basic stitches and I taught myself the rest by asking questions online. I would get patterns for free online and teach myself how to read them. I've been crocheting since May 2005.

* Most recently finished item - A Hat

* On hook now - a scarf to match the hat. however, i've been eying another hat pattern and a sock pattern also.

* Favorite crochet book - the crochet answer book.

Hi Sue I love your Dragon avatar.

Hello Kate and fellow BELLA'S. I'm 56 bf, live in VA, USA. Have 3 daughters, 8 g-kids, and 2 g-g kids on the way. I learned to crochet by pattern in 1999. But, started when I was 14,15. It was supposed to be a blanket and it turned out to be a floor mat. Now I read patterns, do lovely work, and mostly crochet for my own children and family type friends.

Hey Crochet Lady, if you don't mind I will be writing you on crocheting. Do you knitt....I have this anxious feeling to learn how to knitt.......Think it's menopause!!!!!

Welcome to the group, Mattie! You will find that there is a wealth of knowledge in this forum. Everyone is so wonderful about helping each other out when we get in a jam with our hobby. You can also get new ideas from all these folks! They've kept me going a lot of times when I felt like throwing a project in the trash. We're all here to help one another, so don't be afraid to ask your question - and no question is a "dumb" question, except for the one you never ask, of course.
