Hi friend
Walking today through the internet, I discovered your blog. I found an extraordinary man in crochet as I do.
I am Brazilian, I have 22 years, and since the 13 work with this technique.
Here in Brazil, I know I have at least a man who also has a blog.
Outside those who engage in this technique.
Makes me a little, to understand everything I write, and to follow your story, after all, my English is not so good .. hehehehe Anyway, come visit my space, and know my work. I will be very happy to read your comment.
I wish luck and much happiness.
A big hug, Cauê Santos
