Hi All,
My name is Lynn and I am from the Chicago, Ill. suburbs. I am a mom of 4 - all grown and married, a grandmom of 11 and a great-grandmom of 2 sweet little boys! One is newborn! Its just hubby, me and our 2 Golden Retrievers now. We both retired 2 yrs ago so now I have more time to crochet but it seems like LESS time! lol There are soooooo many projects I want to do and sometimes I have 2 or 3 going at a time! I am currently working on a sweet baby blanket for a benefit, a turtle for a great grandson and so want to make Pricilla Hewitt's crochet hook case for myself! I have been crocheting for about 40 years. I was taught by my MIL's friend when I was 16 yrs old. (We married very young!) Have been crocheting ever since. My favorite thing to make is bear blankets for kids and have made probably 30 or so of them!
Nice to be here!
Lynn

I like bear blankets, but I never attempted one myself. I also like your signature! |

Still saying my files are too large. Maybe you can't post pics when you are new?? I've registered at the PixCaboodle site and waiting for conformation so we'll see then
