a great place for crocheters!

well this is going to be all about the wonderful forum called crochetville! its a place where i have been able to not only share my crochet but ive also been able to ask questions, connect with people and learn so much! you can find a place to talk about anything and everything which is perfect because in all honesty where in the world are you going to find such a large range of ages and cultures all connected by one simple thing...crochet! i would compare this site to a web made of yarn, each of us as members are holding a strand and slowly weaving a web of knowledge and friendship.

i am currently running a crochet-along on this forum also known as a CAL...generally speaking its when a bunch of people are working on the same project or similar projects. the one that i am running is a mystery cal, only i know what the finished item will be and each week (on fridays) i post a new "clue" which is just another part of the pattern... so far everyone who is doing it seems to be having a good time with it...i am loving running it and seeing all of the guesses (beach ball, hat, mini cooper car cover, beach bag...) i didnt think running it would be as fun as being someone that is in the dark but i have proven to myself that it is. maybe its because there was such a demand for it but no one wanted to host and i took that on full force or maybe its simply because the people i have connected with while running this are full of personality and make the experience so great! either way i would do this a thousand times over!

i have yet to really run into anyone on here that is unhelpful or mean...i absolutely love the members and am sooooooo proud to be a part of this. i know this sounds like a sales pitch but i just wanted to share my love for the forum and the friends i have made on there. i hope to make many many more and to learn as much as i can from everyones crochet experience.

thanks for keeping me inspired!
