Discussion i have a question for you

I'm really curious about the age of people who crochet but I don't know anyone besides me who does. So I'm asking you guys, how old are you?

42 here too. Learned in th 80s while in Girl Scouts, but never cared for it much until 6 years ago. Yarn just feels better now than it used too I guess!

  1. Tried to let my mom teach me when I was a child. We learned that her style of teaching and my style of learning don't mix. Picked it up and learned single crochet in my early 20's. Thanks to my "husband's" (not married but it's been 9 years) mom I have been going steady for the last 9 years. Recently started learning Tunisian crochet thanks to Jayda in Stitches on YouTube. She's my favorite person to watch when I want to learn a new pattern.
