TEMPTING ADS – FINAL INSTALLATION

November 2, 2009 by jd wolfe Leave a Comment

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!
