This was my first attempt at knitting a teddy bear. The pattern is a Deborah Noville special and the blanket is crocheted. The sweater is knitted and, I think, turned out real well. I will post a photo of Chace as soon as I receive one.
I am an avid crocheter and knitter. I am self-taught and love the ability to make many charity items either way. I had been away from crocheting for a long while, but during a stressful time in my life, a good friend of mine, brought me crochet hooks and yarn and said, "here get busy" and I have been ever crocheting ever since. I owe her a big thanks.
I have been living in Texas now for a year and getting use to the culture. Way different then Massachusetts, but finally settling in with my new family and friends.
