My name is Carri Johnson Burroughs, but my friends call me Kate. I first re-discovered crochet after becoming pregnant with my son in the fall of 2000. I was confined to bed for a while and my husband brought home some yarn and a book and a hook for me. I was "hooked" from the start. The photo at the left shows myself and my husband at dinner at a Barbeque Joint in Chicago, IL in 2002.
