Lily Chin holds the record as the World's Fastest Crocheter. She defended her title last year in England and won. So how fast is fast? She does something like 93-98 double crochet stitches in three minutes. Now that's fast!
Me? Well the last (and first time) I checked, I did something like 55-60 stitches in that timeframe. I didn't practice, so who knows, perhaps my time could be faster. Perhaps one day the Crochet Chapter I belong to will sponsor another one of these speed contests.
If you want to go up against Lily's time, I understand that the CYCA will be holding tryouts at the upcoming CGOA Regional Conference. They had trials at the 2004 National Conference in NH and I recall watching these crocheters "go to town." It was amazing to watch.
