Tammy's Handmade Crochet
Crocheting is my favorite craft.
I learned how to crochet from my grandmother when I was a little girl and I love it. Grandma crocheted edgings on hankies, so she taught me how to crochet with thread first! I made Barbie clothes. No patterns, grandma never had patterns, so I made my own designs. Then it was on to yarn and my first ripple afghan. I taught myself how to read patterns, and when I lived in Japan I taught myself how to read symbols.

Crochet Edging on Receiving Blankets
I made several of these receiving blankets for my grandson. I went to the hospital with my daughter when she had her ultrasound and there was a lady sitting next to me doing this, and since I didn't speak Spanish we couldn't communicate, so I just sat and watched her. On my way home I stopped to buy some blankets and thread. I searched my patterns, found some edging patterns, and set out to try my hand at this. I just used the same holes that they made with their hemming stitches, which then covered up their stitches. My daughter loved them and couldn’t believe that I just made these up from watching someone else do it.
