Good Morning! Hope everyone is keeping warm. We had a little snow here in the Low Country but we'll have some warmer days the rest of this week. Wonder what Mr. Groundhog will say about winter next Tuesday, February 2. History of Groundhog Day Since it's so cold, I'm sure many of us crafters are staying indoors and working on projects. How would you like to take your skills to the next level? Every crafter should have dictionaries or "How To" books. Check out the ones I found. Crochet Stitch Dictionary on Interweave Knit Stitch Dictionary on Interweave The Beading Answer Book on Amazon for Kindle or Paperback (I own this one) The Quilt Block Bible on Amazon Paperback These books are on my wish list! While you were on Interweave, did you notice they cover many crafts? Go back and look. Interweave Store After you have learned new crochet stitches, check out the Free Patterns on Crochet Me (you have to sign up - it's free) If you looking for new sites to buy yarn, beads or fabric, look no further.

I'm off here to work on my project; the Double Layered Braided Cowl. This pattern went viral last week. I'm working this cowl in I Love This Yarn 60/ Aubergine from Hobby Lobby. I'll post a few pics when completed. Until next time, keep crafting! Comments are closed.
