    Extra Credit: Amour Crochet Hooks

    Amour Crochet Hooks By Shannon and Jason View at our website From the first crochet patterns we published to our three latest crochet books Crochet Geometry, Designer Crochet, and Complete Crochet Course, Clover Amour Crochet Hooks have been in our hands all the way.

    Stitch Guide

    Stitch Guide with Instructor Steve Butler Class 156 View at our website What is it? Ever watch an accomplished sewer lay down a line of stitches? It’s always perfectly straight or curved as desired. It looks easy, right? Well, easy until you drop the presser foot and the stitching begins. Then the skills of said sewist become glaringly evident. There’s nothing automatic about perfect straight or curved seams. It takes years of honing those skills to be proficient. And absent those skill enhanced perfect seams our sewn projects will constantly remind us, “It could have been better.” And…

    Memorial Day Keychain with Beading Loom

Our freedoms are directly intertwined with their strength and willingness to put their lives on the line for us, and because of that, I believe we should be forever grateful. To honor them, I decided to create a beading pattern that can be converted into a keychain, wreath pin, or brooch. As we pay our respects on this upcoming memorial day, I hope that you can reflect and appreciate the people that made the…

This is the companion to a popular blanket pattern I released a few months ago. A lot of my testers mentioned wanting a matching pillow cover so I whipped one up. I have somehow never made a crochet…
