I've been crocheting since probably October 2004 and I'm about to turn 13 in a few days! I can't tell you how much stuff I have made! I have boxes and boxes and boxes of stuff that I've made and plan on selling later this year. I've even had some help coming up with a name for all of the things I make. My language arts teacher suggested that when I do sell my stuff, to call it Katie's Creations. No other site compares to this one as far as crochet patterns go, this is the BEST out there! I have a trapper about ready to explode full of all the patterns I've printed off this site! Name: Amanda Subject: I love crochet Comment: I am 26 years old and have been crocheting since I was a kid. Its a great hobby...and this site is full of great projets!! Name: Salome Subject: Crochet Anywhere Comment: Crocheting is a great thing to do anywhere!! I do it all the time while watching TV or listening to a CD. I'm only 12 and I have been crocheting for I think 4 years. I do it everywhere!!It's also a good thing to do while babysitting. You can still keep an eye on the kids while you're having some fun!! And I love to make things for people. They like it 3 times as much because you made it!!! I also like to crochet on long car drives. It helps pass the time. It is a great thing to do on vacation. You can still talk with people and do all that stuff and get some of your crocheting done!!! Name: Michelle M Subject: I love this site Comment: I've spent so many hours looking through this site. I'm 21 and have been crocheting for a few years. I love it more and more and try to do it everyday. I've completed three doilies this past month :) It's a great form of self-relaxation as well as very therapeutic and uplifting during stressful times. Thank you so much to whoever is responsible for this fantasic site. I wouldn't use any other. Name: Jenny Subject: I Love to Crochet! Comment: I am 28 and have been crocheting for years. I just in the last 6 months have really picked it up again and I am hooked (no pun intended). I really feel that crocheting has helped me deal with some depression and anxiety issues I have been dealing with for years. It is such a self-asteem booster to look at a finsished project and say "Wow, I made this!". Name: Delena Subject: crochet Comment: I have read time and time again how crocheting makes one relax and that is so true! As soon as I pick up my "hook" my whole body relaxes and I just don't want to stop for a minute. I have been crocheting for 30 years now and have enjoyed every minute of it. Name: Megan Subject: Yay crochet! Comment: I'm 20 and I just started crocheting maybe 4 months ago and I'm practically a pro now! I tried knitting for about 2 seconds and after I realized that it just isn't the same without a hook on the end of the needle, I said "forget this," and continued crocheting. I swear by this site! No other site has the collection that this one does! I can't tell you how many patterns I have printed off of here! Keep them coming! we'll all be here to use the patterns!!! :D Name: Staci Subject: Love to Crochet Comment: Hi! I have been crocheting since I was six years old. My grammy who was 96 years old at the time taught me to crochet. My first project she taught me was to make an oreo cookie magnet. I was so eager to learn. I never put it down since. She was the most precious thing in my life. I don't know how she had the patience to teach me but she sure did. I will never forget all the lessons I done with her. She always crocheted in her rocking chair and I would sit in front of her while she explained the stitches to me. I am going to be 33 years old in June. The only time when I don't have a hook in my hand is when I work and when I finally put down the project to go to bed.!!! I don't know what I would do with out it. It calms me after a long day at work. It is so relaxing. I am so glad to read in here all the young ladies and gentlemen who have picked up the most precious art. Keep it up and Happy Crocheting to all. Name: Amy Subject: Yay! Comment: My sister and I have both crocheted since we were 7. We both love this site because it is updated so often. Keep up the good work! Name: Connie Subject: Can't put it down!!! Comment: Hi! I just love these sites that have the free patterns, I have just recently started crochet, after a sad attempt several years ago, now I can't seem to get enough, I'm constantly looking for afghan patterns, baby afghans....just love it........ Name: Audrey Subject: Crocheting is a BLAST! Comment: Hi. I am 12 years old and i love to crochet.Me and my friend make all kinda things. Right now my friend and i are crocheting a blanket out of granny squares. I have also made stuffed animals a pot holder and some belts. Name: Zuz Subject: Crochet Rules! Comment: Hey everyone, im 16, I've been crocheting since i was 9, and im hooked! i did give knitting a shot, and when i realized that i couldnt make anything other than rectangles, i decided to go back to crocheting. I'm called grandma at school...(of course, 'cause of the crocheting!) Just wanted to say this site has soo much great stuff on it, and ill be crocheting away... Name: annie bird Subject: my son Comment: My mother taught me how to crochet when I was very young. I started back crochet more in the past 10 years when my father was very sick. I would crochet and watch him. He only knew I was crocheting. It is a peace of mind and it help you to doing bad times. After my father died of cancer I had to finish the spread. My son was very sick 2 years ago and the Lord and my crochet needle is what helped me. He had colon cancer. He passed in 2003. I work night shift and did I crochet what a help it was mentaly and steel crocheting love it where i go it goes with me. Name: Roslyn Subject: younger crochers Comment: I wanted to update you on my son, Anthony, who I told you about who is 10 and decided to crochet. He has taken his "works" to school to show some interested teachers and students. It turns out that one teacher asked him to show her and a staff of teachers how to do a "twist" to make a worm. The school wants to sell them in order to raise money to help victims from the Tsunami. Do I have to tell you how excited he is. I will be going with him in the next week to help out. Can't wait to see the outcome of this project. Name: Laura Subject: Just Relax Comment: I am 17 and I have been crocheting for over two years and when I frist started I would tense up, so I learned to hold the hook like you would hold an egg and the yarn really relaxed in my hand. Hold everything in anyway that makes you feel comfortable.
