Hi! I'm Linda and I've been crocheting and designing since I was 9 years old. I love being creative and giving someone a present that I've created just for them! I started creating wedding blankets for family and friends to commemorate their special day. I start with the wedding colors and then work out a specific design just for them. I've also made a rainbow blanket for my grandson (but no pink or purple, Grammy---that's only in girl rainbows!)

I've also been designing jewelry. I started by making pieces, earrings and /or necklaces to match my own outfits and I've branched out to creating pieces and fixing earrings and necklaces for friends.

I've just started a new career at Petco in Peabody and I love it. There are times when I'm able to bring my projects with me to work. I've also been able to teach a few of my clients how to crochet to increase their manual dexterity in their hands and fingers.

I'm so glad to engage with others on this Crochet.Community site and I look forward to learning new techniques! Thanks for reading my profile!
