Greetings,


I've just subscribed to my favorite place to go for an online

Crochet magazine. I've been a lurker of this site for many years. Taught by my mother, I've been crocheting on and off for many years. Over the years I've added other fiber arts to my list, cross stitch, knitting, and even weaving on a tri-loom. As much as I love to learn knew crafts, crochet is still my favorite. Recently, I'm trying my hand at creating my own design, a shawl pattern. Seeing how I am a novice at creating and posting my own patterns, I thought this might be the right place to work with others more experienced. I'm sure I could learn a thing or two from the many wonderful members of the crochet community. This shawl is working up nicely and once complete, I will revise my notes into a readable pattern. Any and all hints, tips, and suggestions are most welcome. I look forward to sharing and making new friends at Crochet Me.


I do not have a picture yet but to give you a taste....


Pattern name: Reed's Shawl ( think Bamboo reeds )

Yarn used: Bernat Satin Sport color Jade ( originally wanted to use a bamboo yarn but this will do for now )

Hook size G


I hope I will be able to entice a few testers further down the road, to help me pull this all together. Here's to many happy hours of this thing with string called, "Crochet".


Cheers,

Got-Yarn
