Hello and welcome!
Hi everyone! Let's get to know each other! What do you usually do with your yarn? Where are you from? What inspires you?
What was your favorite part of the day today?
I'll start! I am a knitter and crocheter and love to make amigurumi and hats. My family and I live in New Jersey. Cartoons, pop culture, and dreaming up new things to do with yarn inspire me. And, my favorite part of today was plowing through my classwork before 10 am, leaving me with plenty of time to crochet! ;)
I'm looking forward to getting to know you all!




Hi! I'm a weaver. I know a tiny bit of crochet but weaving is really what I love to do. I got into it because I wanted to do historical reenacting, specifically as a Viking, and my research basically led me into teaching myself tablet weaving. That was 8 years ago & I love doing it.
Hiiii! So cool! Welcome to Great Balls of Yarn, I can't wait to see your work! 😊
Hi, I spin (badly), knit and crochet. I live in Iowa, where I hoard yarn and fleece. :) Some day I shall knit a pair of socks for ME, instead of everyone else. My 'go to' is crocheting baby blankets when I need something to do that doesn't require much 'attention', like when watching TV.
Helloooo! Nice to meet you! =)
Hi, I live in upstate NY. I usually crochet although frogging is a close second! I am a stay at home mom but my youngest just started kindergarten last month so I'm still getting used to having a quiet house to myself for the first time in 10 years.
Haha congratulations on the quiet house! Nice to meet you! =)
I live in a tropical country so such woven things are impractical for wearing. But I really like the idea of crocheting cute little stuff. I'm looking for designs to crochet that are not too complex for a beginner to self learn, not too big. I find the colourful and soft yarn therapeutic :) When my skills improve I can try amigurumi animals.
