      HI! I'm in the group Crochet With Us, and I mentioned a week or two ago that it seems like EVERY pattern I look for I can find on Moogly! AND I've been saving all the cute ones you've been posting lately. I've been meaning to find a way to tell you personally that you are by far my favorite and in my opinion the very best designer out here! Thank you for all your patterns! Have a great week!

      These are awesome! I'm knitting a bag and was thinking about appliqués I could make for it, and then you posted these patterns! I just made a tiny starfish. So cute! Thank you.

      I love this seahorse pattern, but I can't figure out her diagram! Tamara would you please write it down or do a video, so those of us who are "diagram challenged" could crochet this cute little critter? It really is the best one on the web!

        I'm sorry, I can't do that as it would be copyright infringement! You could contact the designer though!
