I wanted to let you know about a step called the Magic ring. It is a way of beginning your project without that hole in the center. It completely closes it off.. (wait for it)... Magically... ha! <br />Anyway, the link is here and it is really very easy to do and learn. <br /><br />http://www.crochetspot.com/how-to-crochet-the-magic-adjustable-ring/<br /><br />And also here:<br />http://carinascraftblog.wardi.dk/2010/07/crochet-magic-ring-tutorial.html<br /><br />I included a couple of websites so that you could learn from both in case one was easier for you than the other.<br />This is really very easy to learn and it helps a whole bunch. <br />CheerioAnya Edenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06736513748907591266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157527.post-25784894398950537392012-02-21T23:57:21.997-05:002012-02-21T23:57:21.997-05:00Have you found your mother's patterns yet for ...Have you found your mother's patterns yet for the potholders?margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11628625207784743652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157527.post-29684499067435719402011-07-26T10:42:36.887-04:002011-07-26T10:42:36.887-04:00MY G'ma made these, too.

I toyed with the idea of hanging them up here just to see what reaction I'd get, but then chickened out - I'd probably splash something on them!<BR/><BR/>Hi Leigh! Yes, I'm in the mood for more fiber less food :) Unfortunately, I'm not getting much done with either these days! I've got one Christmas knitting project going and one sewing project on hold. Next weekend I'll be back to baking cookies - Christmas cookies!Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11194828903719000019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157527.post-49709253684720881052007-12-09T08:43:00.000-05:002007-12-09T08:43:00.000-05:00Yay!

I only remember my Aunt Emma as an elderly woman who gave me M&M's when we visited (and had a gigantic collection of ceramic salt and pepper shakers)... but she must have had a wonderful sense of humor.<BR/><BR/>Hi Rowena!
