Craft Gossip

For my final installation on Tempting Ads from our favorite crochet mags, I’ve gathered some really crochet friendly information.  I was thrilled to find the site that has nicely priced coned yarns/threads – and they actually mention what would be suitable for crochet.  Can’t go wrong there.

WaHoo! An online yarn shop that actually has a section devoted to crochet patterns!!  Quite a huge selection of yarns and some patterns of interest.  This coned perle cotton is actually described as being suited for fine crochet!

Here’s another product that is news to me.  Expensive, but yummy looking.  Big Stitch Bumps.
