I love to crochet! I prefer smaller items I can complete in a day or two - I have yet to complete any afghan I've started! I would LOVE to figure out how to crochet a nice pair of socks!!!

I have an amazing amount of yarn! All colors and types! Mostly acrylic or cotton but all my acrylic is supersoft and not the cheap yucky itchy kind!

I also have a crazy amount of beading supplies! All types of beads, findings, wire, anything beading I've probably got it!

I also have a thing for crochet patterns/books! My husband says I could start my own library - with cookbooks, crochet stitch/patterns, handmade anything, beading, and gardening books.

I love flowers! Especially older types, four o'clocks, hollyhocks, wild varieties, antique roses. Also heirloom veggies. There is nothing like a heirloom homegrown tomato!

I love anything old - things they dont make anymore; do anymore, etc. Old cookbooks, brown clorox bottles, nice chinatype coffee cups not mugs, depression glass... and buttons too! I have a zillion in pretty blue old mason jars!

I make my own laundry soap and cleaning products, I can salsa, jams and jellies with homegrown fruits and veggies. We have 130 blueberry plants, nice thornless blackberry vines, peach trees and have a large vegetable garden each year.

My favorite colors are green and yellow. I do not care for blue too much.

I am 28 and a stay at home mommy of two little boys. 4 1/2 year old with autism and a 2 year old into absolutely everything!

New to swapping - I think this will be fun!
