How long have you been crocheting?

I mean actually making finished pieces.

I learned how to chain at five years old, but I didn’t start making finished things until last February.

If you have a large gap in your years crocheting like @KMartSpecial , maybe add up your total active years crocheting.

  • Days
  • Weeks
  • Months
  • 1 year
  • 2-5 years
  • 6-10 years
  • 11-20 years
  • 21-99 years

For fun, compare this to @tiramisuhawthorne’s poll about our ages.

Maybe vote the total number of Active years crocheting then?

Those previous years gave you a great foundation.

I made a lot of blankets, squares and rectangles since I was 14. So 50 years. 13 years ago I looked at a crocheted hat, and figured out how to make them. Been crazy learning ever since.
