crochet and designing rights, patents rant

My great great grandmother, my grandmothers and mom all have crocheted and so do I and many before any of us. With that being said, How is possible that a stitch or design has become exclusive to so many young people. As if they were the Originators of some slouchy hat or dishcloth? I don't understand this. I saw a pair of earrings that I've done many o many of occasions. I give them as gifts and sell them. But apparently it is now someone elses design that they created. Are these ppl all…See More

Recovering nicely

So while recovering my little hooker fingers went to work. lol3 hats, 1 bag are completed. I also have a top and 2 more bags that are 75% done.I've been working as fast as I can as I would really like to have a decent inventory to be able to participate with the local Pop-up fairs and markets.On another note...I can't wait to get better so I can get back to my workouts. Sitting around and hooking for hours really does nothing for my figure... lolSee More

I started a Blog last year. One for which I've spent the least amount of time writing in let alone maintaining. I also have a Website which also is given the same treatment. This is all pretty sad to me since they are both about my Crochet Addiction but I cannot for the life of me put down a project long enough to take and edit pictures and write a short about it! 

This of course is a time management issue. 

But I crochet faster than I type.

Piggy Back

I think I've read more ranting about the rantings of knitters than the actual knitter rants themselves. I guess Ive never really entertained those points. Sometimes they are valid and half truths, sure.

It is that there is NO man-made machine out there right now, nor in the history of time that can Crochet at the level of any human hand let…
