the crochet case: Bargello Crochet
http://thecrochetcase.blogspot.com/2012/11/bargello-crochet.html
Monday, 5 November 2012. This is Not Your Nana's Needlework! All has been quiet on the blog for a while now. I wont bore you with too many details, but one of the reasons behind this silence is that I have been dating! After being single for over a year, I met a wonderful man. He is an Author of Children's books. If you are curious, you can find his blog and his books here. Anyway, the 1st of November marked the start of National Novel Writing Month. I dreamt about them. Chevrons that were a combination ...

the crochet case: Five Reasons
http://thecrochetcase.blogspot.com/2012/03/five-reasons.html
Tuesday, 20 March 2012. NOT to craft when you are cranky:. 1 You are more likely to get frustrated with your work. The piece may end up being thrown across the room or worse, become a WIP that never gets finished. 2 Your mood shows in your work. I don't know about you, but if I am in a particularly bad mood when crafting (especially if working on an Amigurumi piece) my mood is reflected in my work. See example below. 4 Your colour choices will be affected. Crocheting apparently, for many of us, generates...

the crochet case: I Heart Inspiration
http://thecrochetcase.blogspot.com/2012/03/i-heart-inspiration.html
Thursday, 15 March 2012. I love Amigurumi Koeshi. They are cute, easy enough to 'dress' up and work up relatively fast compared to something you need to sew limbs onto. I also confess that I have been a fan of Heart Candy. Oh boy *gush* over. I decided to apply the concept. Of Jessie's work to 3D -. With a crochet hook, yarn, needle thread and buttons. Lots and lots of buttons! I don't mean the ones you can purchase in a store. I mean crochet buttons! Have I mentioned that I hate working repetitively?

You Can Be in Crochetvolution! Margaret Mills on Crocheting through Breast Cancer. December 15, 2014. Middot; 2 Comments. I first learned about Margaret Mills from an article that she wrote for I Heart Art: Portland titled “The Healing Arts and Crafts,” in which she described how crochet had helped her to acknowledge and then heal from depression. I later interviewed her about how crochet helped her to heal and shared some of her story in my book, Crochet Saved My Life. Just after I finished chemo, my mo...

Court Jester Beanie for kids. Moda Vera “Fern”. This yarn comes in 100 gram skeins. One (1) skein will make approximately 4 Court Jester Beanies.
