No one has to be an expert at anything to enjoy doing it. I've been crocheting a lot lately and trying to get the hang of linen which behaves very differently from wool and cotton. This is a market bag that uses simply single and triple crochet, as well as chaining.

I'll be working on this today. Drop in with your own handwork for crafting compa nonstop.

Summer is fast approaching. Making your own garments for events lets you create a casual cut with a fancy fabric that's suitable for cocktail or formal events. And the reverse is true too, making a formal gown in a light cotton can be a fun way to snazz up a sundress.
Help on your projects is always available.
Threads is open Fridays 10 to 3 and by appointment throughout the week.
