• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Anyone like to crochet or knit?

I knit another pair of socks. In some ways, it is really great to be retired. :)

I used Mary Maxim's Premier sock yarn in Watermelon.

I didn't make them. I just saw the picture from facebook and tried it as an avatar. It is suppose to be Harris and Walz.
Really good job. Those could be easily put on the market.

It has been unseasonably cold in the part of the country where I live, so I was happy to finish these mittens before the subzero weather subsided! I had a lot of fun using them to throw snowballs with my friends and they kept my hands very warm.

I have been working on crocheting flowers and plants since I travel and they don't need water. :)

These will survive my absence of a a few months:

The blue zinnias and the light pink tulip petals have wire in them. It adds a bit of difficulty to crochet around the wire.
