Question
I was wondering if you knew of a place to get the graphs to crochet the alphabets and the numbers. I have seen the alphabets with pictures with it but I cant find it now, but it was years ago when I seen it. like the A would have the picture of a apple on the graph also. Thanks Shirley

Hi Shirley,
These are my favorite books.

101 Filet Crochet Charts Book 1275 by American School of Needlework (I think I bought this on Amazon or Ebay, but the back cover says Leisure Arts)

Filet Crochet Charts Book No. 1 by Heirloom Creations
This one is very good and is by Vivian Floy Smith.   I have this info but don't know if it's current.

Expertise

Traditional Crochet and Filet Crochet (not clothes) I do more thread crochet than yarn.

Experience

I have been crocheting for over 50 years. As a child growing up in New Orleans, LA, I had aunts and older cousins who taught me, but now they are all gone and sadly, there is no one who crochets in my area. I hope to be able to meet fellow crocheters through this website, and I'd be delighted if I could help someone answer a question. I'm sure I'll be asking my share, also. I specifically enjoy doilies and afghans. I really like designing filet crochet. I don't make clothes, other than hats and scarves.

Education/Credentials
I learned as a child in the 50's from aunts and older cousins.
