Expertise

I am able to assist with reading patterns, in any format. I been crocheting for about 18 years. Specialty in intricate pattern, adding bead, sequence, etc.

Experience in the area

Crochet, all type patterns

What do you like about this subject?

Crochet is a way to relax, the rhythm of stitchng is soothing. The final product I take great pride and pleasure in, but I beleive the best part of it all is the reaction from a person that is given, and to see your piece being used and part of someones history.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

I would like to see more people show interest in this great craft, so it can live for years to come
