[Nfb-krafters-korner] Hi Greg

[Powers, Terry (NIH/OD/DEAS) [E]]

Greg;
Are you making your own desigs on the rugs?  The kits I have seen, already have the yarn precut.  When I made shag pillows, I wound the yarn around a piece of hard cardboard and cut it once.  My pieces were a lot longer than you use for latch hooking.  
Welcome to the group and also welcome to many other newbees I missed lately.

Terry Powers from MD

Hi Everyone. I live in western North Carolina. I'm always doing some project and often that is crochet. I like simple items and would love to learn from all of you.

I've just started trying to learn to latch hook and haven't got very far with that. My roommate did figure out a way to help me cut yarn to the same length and several at a time. Now, I just have to get some rug yarn and figure out a pattern to use.

He is a woodworker and sighted but I'm often called into service to help with that work too.

I learned how to make some really nice paper flowers this summer and am wanting to learn hook rugs. Now, if I can just find a way to make enough money back from all of this to continue the obsession!

I look forward to getting to know all of you.

How do the classes work and the Monday night chat? Maybe I'll learn all of that when I go to the website.

Greg
