Scan & upload to the interwebs? Those are so interesting & I love them but I can’t house them either. I gave away gramma’s collection, I had so muchy. Isn’t that old stuff fun? I wish I’d kept the macrame owl pattern. Who knew that would become cool again? LOL!

Lol, right? That’s what stops my Yankee heart from getting rid of anything- whenever I do I fond myself looking for it later!
I’ve been really good at not buying/bringing in books lately. I now make myself search the library networks first and sit with the book that way first to decide if it is something that I really love to have living in my home.

Do you have any crochet doily patterns or crochet hat patterns? Those would interest me.

Do you use charts for making doilies? I have tons of doily patterns but they are all charts.

HEY EV-ERY-BODY! It’s time to vote in the Spring Is In The Air Challenge! Get on over there before the poll closes on March 27, 2023!
I may still have some old patterns on my shelf for knitting. How do I know when the copyright is expired?
I believe the rule is: “Copyright protection lasts for the life of the author plus an additional 70 years.”

Does anyone have any neon yarn - think dodgy 80’s colours?
I want to make some legwarmers for an 80s theme night at my gym. Thought I’d ask before buying

I don’t have enough of that kind of yarn. I have a small ball of hot pink, certainly not enough for even a mitten. It’s the scratchy kind, too. Is Red Heart yarn still manufactured?
I’m reorganizing my studio and destashing. If you’d like any of these quilt patterns please message me and I’ll get them in the mail to you …

The odds of my using it are small, but if nobody else wants the arrows I would love to have a look at that pattern. (but feel free to snipe it if you actually expect you’d make it)
