I love the look of crocheted items. My friends Mom used to crohet beautiful bed covers... I have simply never had the the patience to sit and work on anything like that.
I have a cousin who does some of it and have bought a few items from her that I've really liked.

Great site.... I love to crochet, I just finished a baby afghan for my niece's baby.
I made 4 for my grandson before he was born. I have also done alot a afghans for wedding gifts. i love doing it especially in the winter when you can't get outside. I also like to knit but it takes to long. It's very relaxing.

I'm one of those "old ladies" who carries yarn almost everywhere I go! I love to crochet with yarn and thread. I've made several beautiful table cloths, but the daughters usually claim them before they're even finished. I try to make at least one kid sized afghan/blanket each month to donate to the Childrens Hospital at Christmas time. I keep a crochet bag in my car for doctor's waiting rooms and road trips with hubby.

I'm not sure what I do - it's with 1 needle. I basically make a square that gets bigger and bigger, until I declare that it is officially a blanket.
