  6. MonikaRose,
    Thank you. I check my e-mail several times a day. What question did you have about your pullover?

  7. I've been learning how to crochet from various books, and I have finally found your website, which I love! Often I find it easier to watch you than just to read the instructions. One question, what sort of yarn would you use to make one of these? The yarn looks so thin and delicate.

  10. Billie,
    I used size 10 crochet cotton. You could do it with a smaller yarn sport weight 2 or 3 ply yarn if you are not comfortable with thread.

  12. Hi Teresa,

    I am trying to do this crocheting pattern on Youtube, but I didn't understand what kind of hook you used. Is it the US1\2.35mm hook? Thanks! If you could email me, or comment on my blog, I would appreciate it. :)

  13. Hi Teresa,
    My name is Randy. I've recently gone through rehab for chemical dependency and found myself in need of a hobby. For some strange reason I thought of checking out YouTube to see if anyone posted videos of crochet work and how to's. I started with the motif or doily then went to the puppy sweater. I still have to look at your videos to be able to complete a project but I really enjoy it. I do however have a favor to ask...I have a sister that really likes doilies but the only pattern I know of is the motif you made for your pins and needles. Can you direct me to something that's a little more challenging? I'd prefer something from you because your camera takes the perfect shots plus you make out look so easy. Anything you can offer will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, RT.

Extended or Long Double Crochet - This is where you will work a double crochet several stitches below the row you are on. You will need to pull up on the stitch and allow for some additional yarn, so the stitch does not sag.

Multiple: 4
You will add 4 chains for each segment of the pattern stitch that you want to add to the width.

Example: If you want to make a baby afghan with a size I/5.5mm crochet hook, 4-ply yarn, you will chain 108. This will give you an estimated width of 34 inches.
