Lisa Gentry broke the Guinness World Record "Fastest Crocheter" on June
25, 2005 at the Michaels Arts and Crafts Store in Monroe, LA. She
crocheted 853 trc = 5113 sts. in 30 min = 170 sts/min.
Thanks to:
1. Mrs. Barbara Jean Sonntag, Craig,
Colorado, for setting the record in 1981 and congratulation for holding
the title for over 24 years.
2. Coats & Clarks for supplying the yarn
"TLC Essentials".
3. My friend and neighbor Ann Roan
pulling the yarn and timing me each day!
4. My husband Jerry, my family, friends
and email groups for all the support the last few weeks.
5. Michaels Arts and Crafts Store
employees for organizing this event.
I was asked so many times: What did you crochet to break the Guinness
World Record?
Thanks to my friend Ann to design this nice "8 inch Mega Flower".
