About Tottie Tomato:
Several years ago, my husband brought a green tomato into the house, and said: “Look at this tomato! It has a nose!”
Well… I saw right away that that tomato had a personality as well as a nose, and Tottie Tomato was born. She accompanied us on a trip across Canada and had all kinds of adventures.
I am working on Tottie Tomato books, so stay tuned!






Hi Noreen !!
You knew me as “crochet chic” in the past. We discussed many things, including linked stitches !!
I found a link on Ravelry that linked to “Hankering for Yarn” about carving a crochet hook, and the post is no longer there. Can you provide any info about this topic? Pretty please?
Thank you SOOO much,
Cristina
Hi Cristina
It’s lovely to hear from you again!
I am scrambling to get Tottie’s blog up and running, at the same time as working on a whole lot of new projects, so it’s a bit challenging to get all the tutorials re-configured.
I’ll add the hook carving to the list of requested tutes!

Nice to see you Tottie
Love

HI Noreen, Good to see you! Now I can look forward to my regular diet of crafty things again!
Cheers, Caroline
Thank you so much, Caroline! I hope that you will enjoy Tottie Talks Crafts!
So nice to have you here….
Hi Noreen
Thank you for the inspiration you are giving me!
I wonder if you can help me. I am in the NE of Scotland and I am struggling to buy a potholder loom. Crafts shops here do not know what I am talking about even, never mind stock them!! So can you advise me where to buy a quality potholder loom as I don’t want to sent to the USA without knowing for sure that I am getting a quality product.
I would be so grateful for you help.
Thanks again for all you do!
Very best wishes
Jean

Would like to weave a shirt for self and am interested to know what you used for warp and weft. Weaving it on a rigid heddle loom.
Hi Lynn
I used a combination of 2/8 cotton, crochet cotton, rayon, silk and mystery fiber from my stash
Happy weaving!
