Crochet

Many of our knitters a bit resistant to crochet....but I encourage all knitters to learn a few basic crochet techniques....you don't need a lot of fancy stitches to whip up something special.


This cowl is made with single crochet and yarn bits from my stash......so give it a try, come see me, I'll show you how!
