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.

Jonathan's Blanket
I made this diagonal box stitch blanket for a friend's baby.
I added a border of 6 rows of FPD/BPD, then finished it off with a row of reverse single. I used 4 (5 oz) Bernat Softee Baby Denim Marl and an "E" hook. It measures 34" x 34".
