Hi everyone

cherrybee · Posted: Sun Jun 29, 2008 7:24 am Post subject: Hi everyone

Just joined this addictive forum, so hope this posting is okay. I am 37, married with 3 children, I live in Carrickfergus in Northern Ireland. I mainly crochet but enjoy knitting as well. I have donated knit and crochet items to local charities but am delighted to have hooked up with yourselves.

My husband says I should be attending "Wool Anonymous" and regularly gives off about my wool stash (must point out that I take no heed)!!

Look forward to chatting to everyone,

Cherryl xx

Hello Cherryl and Kirsten
Great to have another pair of needles and a crochet hook. Hope you get on ok with the boobs. I found it awkward the first time I tried to knit one but it gets easier as you get used to what's happening Rolling Eyes

Hi Do, Castlewellan is a lovely part of the country, we used to camp there when we were growing up. Often threatened to go camping again - probably think I would get more of a chance to crochet. I would love to get chatting with some more fellow "wool addicts" and set up a local group.

Thanks, Cherryl xx
