Mini Mochi Flower Garden Shawl (and more free patterns!)


We've always loved Mini Mochi and Mochi Plus yarns, but now there's even more reasons to love them. Their website has lots of free patterns!

This is a fun project made from 8 balls of Mini Mochi in four different colorways. Of course, you can choose whatever colors you like best. The pattern is here. As it says on the website," Your Granny Squares never looked so good with so little effort! The color changes are built into the yarn!"



Have fun looking at their website - there's so much to see and we have all the yarn that's called for in the shop.

Spring is here!


Go here to sign up for a free membership on Bernat's website. The amount of patterns is amazing! We have lots of free Bernat patterns in the store, too, on the back table. New ones come in nearly every week!

This pretty crocheted market bag is so Spring-time, isn't it? Crochet up a bunch of these easy to make cheery and useful items, use them yourself, and give them to your friends and family. Who needs all those Shaw's and Hannaford plastic bags, anyway? If you're anything like this writer, you've got a huge stash of them under your sink!
