It’s finally starting to feel like winter around here. I have a feeling we’ll all be crocheting and knitting with heavy yarns for a while longer!
Last week we asked you: What new crochet stitch or knitting stitch would you like to learn and why? What would you make with that stitch? Be sure to check out the answers from last week – there were quite a lot of people sharing new stitches!
Though it’s cold and Christmas has passed, it’s not too late to warm someone’s heart with a handmade gift. I can’t think of a better way to show someone I care. So this week’s question is…
What do you knit or crochet for Valentine’s Day?
