Vintage Mom Teaching Child

A Mother’s Lesson

My mother taught me to crochet when I was — oh — in the second or third grade.  I loved it from the get-go. It was magical how this thread, this piece of string, could turn into something so beautiful in my own hands.  Her lessons were a fantastic gift that I have enjoyed my entire life. Thank you, Mom!

    I can crochet……..well, sort of…….I just can’t seem to follow a pattern! Oh well, I’ll get to that….. :-) I’m glad it brings you so much pleasure.

    Blessings,
