Learning new skills

As many of you know, I am ALL about learning and trying something new.. and over the years, I/ we have explored all sorts of crafts – from working with clay, to sewing and then of course knitting and crochet.

Crochet is what “stuck” with my daughter.. and crochet is now her Nr 1 passion.. and as her passion grew, so did her skills and crafts.. and now, we are excited to launch this new book of mini crochet projects.

What is special about this book?

Firstly.. it has 60, yes SIXTY adorable crochet projects for you to try. Even if I say so myself, that is pretty awesome and rather a LOT! Most crochet books have “only” 40 projects if that. Many hover around 25-30 projects. SO.. in ONE Book, you get 60 ideas….

They are designed to:

  • Be made with ANY kind of yarn (work with what you have – no need to buy expensive supplies! But know also: these work in super plush yarns, so you can sell them at markets, or in regular DK yarn to make amigurumi minis (or combine them with some affirmation cards for extra gifting fun)
  • Be made relatively quickly (project take between 20 min and 2hours – though it may be faster or slower depending on where you are in your crochet journey)
  • Introduce stitches as you progress through the book to stretch your skills
  • Encourage sewing to allow for personalisation and open up SO MANY more projects to you (to sew really is an essential skill in your crochet journey)

Grab your copy on Amazon and all good booksellers!

Here is an example of how great these minis work in plush yarn too! As well as all of the projects together. We LOVE LOVE LOVE them all.

Anyhoo! The EXCITEMENT is REAL!!!! Really can’t wait for these books to “land” and for you to all have lots of crochet fun!!
