I just found your site and I love your patterns. I'm somewhat of a novice and I "think" maybe I can figure them out! Thanks! Becky
 
Love your patterns. Even though I have been crocheting for years I still have to to the rip out thing. Patterns like yours are so easy to follow. no need to guess at it. Thank you. Problem is, I would like to print them out but I do not find a cut and paste on the screen. Maybe the part timers thing is taking over. I am almost 70, but Ido know the computer pretty wll. Can you help? Blessings, Judie in Washington State.
 
The way I copy and paste is to hold down the left click on my mouse and select what I want to print. Then right click my mouse and select copy. Then I paste into Word or Works. I know there are other ways to do it, but that is how I save all the patterns I see on the www.
 
Thank you so much for sharing! I love your patterns.
