But wait, there is more....

And, yes there is more....

Crocheting with Friends has also arrived with NEW Steel Crochet Hooks ranging from size 0.5 mm (yes, that is a 16 my friends who love small, teeny tiny hooks) through 2.7 mm C/2 00 Steel....

Bamboo Crochet with Friends Hooks have arrived - now available are sizes E-4 through N-15 as well as the rare, hard to find size 3.0 mm and 4.5 US 7.   Each hook is 6 inches and we have made them with a groove for your thumb for great maneuverability while you are working with them.   This groove is especially helpful if you have issues with your fingers or hands - the groove fits perfectly with your thumb so you can have a lighter grip so the hook will not roll in your hands if you are unable to make a tight grip.   

Tunisian Crocheters.... we now have a range of sizes available of 10 inch bamboo Tunisian Crochet Hooks (Afghan Hooks) - they are simply beautiful and super smooth.     Sizes range from 3.0 mm through N-15 10.0 mm hooks.

Try some today, you will be back for more.... everyone has been!

A new favorite for the 2017 season has been Acacia Yarns Alpaca Cotton - yes, 35% Alpaca and 60% Cotton, and 5% Acrylic create a gorgeous fabric for sweaters, mittens and hats.... each 50 gram ball has 88 yards and works up like a dream... this has been a great sweater yarn for the season and even when wet, the yarn stays put and doesn't stretch.   A great, great yarn for a warm and comfy everyday sweater!   Oh, and did I mention that it is soft... and works for those who don't wear wool.... yeah!   Available in a variety of colors!

Have a great day and fiber on!
