Hi Sharon! The books I have been working out of lately have about 15 patterns each. When I'm testing for #Zabbez, there are around 15 different patterns in a set, so that's something to shoot for. I can help you as a technical editor when the time comes. I haven't gotten to the pattern you sent. Let me know if you need it done right away and I will stop what I am working on.

so far I have a mermaid, a turtle, a stingray, two starfish, a conch shell snail, a crab, a dolphin, & a clam patterns written, that's 9, so I have 6 more to write & crochet the first ones. I find that while crocheting the first ones, I change the pattern. So there is no rush. Thanks for your help.

When I crochet, I crochet in the same room as my mom, I use different colors to mark my stitches, one as the start of the round (amigurumi) & another for every 10 stitches, as Mom likes to talk, & I get distracted easily. Plus we babysit her great grandchildren, my great nieces & nephews, they can also distract me. I learned from the chronically crocheting fb group that I'm 3 years older than you. Early Happy Birthday too!

Just wanted to say..THANK YOU for your video. I decided to dip into candle making after accumulating lots of candle left overs and rather than throwing them away, making use of them with addition of new wax in the melt. I was so baffled why I keep getting the dipping effect, but your video explained nicely the issue. I was already doing same methods for levelling it all up, but it was good to have confirmation to my methods. And your potato peeler tip will come handy too...attacking the wax slabs with sharp hunting knife has proven to be bit too lethal..'outch'. It just shows, we don't have to have all posh equipment to make nice candles.

depends where you get it from, & if other things are in it. It can be edible, used in cooking, the pure paraffin wax.
