Or, maybe it’s that this sweet, clever design will make anyone who wears it feel like a Princess. Kate and her kin do not have the market cornered on dressy head wear. Inside Crochet, Issue 18, June 2011 has a simple but elegant version they call ‘Wedding Fascinator’. It’s but one of many lovely patterns in this issue – the quality of crochet design we have come to expect from this UK publication.
WEDDING FASCINATOR INSIDE CROCHET #18
I am able to buy my copy of this magazine every month at Joann Fabric and Crafts which typically sells it for 10% off the list price of .99. I stopped in there today just to buy the mag. It’s always worth the $$ IMO. Yudu.com has an online version that is .99 per issue. That’s a real bargain.
Other enticing patterns in this issue include the DewDrop Scarf by Zoe Clements which is a Solomon’s Knot single skein beauty worked in Artyarns Beaded Mohair and Sequins, a truly stunning looking yarn, the cover Willow Camisole by Irene Strange which will definitely appeal to the twenty somethings, and Linda Permann’s Lace Skirt which is worked side to side. Also included are bibs, toys, shrugs and a bow-tie accented cap. Other articles place emphasis on color in fashion and, in the great minds think alike category, a nice article on beaded crochet – something I just blogged on.
I continue to be pleased by this magazine. I hope you are able to obtain a copy for yourself, either in print or online. I think you’ll find it to be a good value, filled with useful information and creative crochet designs.

i’ve been wanting to do more video blogging – or ‘vlogging’ as some call it, but since the last vlog I uploaded was a YEAR and a HALF ago I suppose it hasn’t been near the top of my to-do list. So when my iPhone app launched last week (and it features my YouTube videos on it) I felt a renewed sense of excitement in getting my video on. I’m hoping to be making a bunch of “how to” videos along the way as well.
For my friends who are hearing impaired I apologize for not having figured out how to close caption my videos yet. I promise that I will continue to try to find that technology, and until then rest assured that the vlog won’t be replacing the blog. I didn’t wake up this morning thinking I would say the word “vlog” so much today. Anywho….

Doesn’t mean it’s automatically “Chic”.
Dear Designer,
You know…
I do applaud you.
First of all, I do not, and I will state this categorically, hate ANY of the colours you’ve used, and it’s not beyond the bounds of “Working”, so snaps for that.
Next, you’ve tried to be environmentally, conscious and aware and friendly in the whole recycling sweater/yarn idea. Shame you’ve maybe erred into some dangerous waters there.
Wool embroidery is something I do like , can’t do, but admire in those who can and right about now is where I stop with the love.
Having your guinea pig chew out squares of woolen stitchwork, and then asking him to crochet a border round each (those little 4 toed front paws… Squeeee! – but no good at crochet) so that you can hook together a whole bunch of motifs, in a charmless layout, bound by an edging that wouldn’t be eaten by a cat were it on a blanket…
becomes truly cringeworthy.
This looks like a thrift shop wanna-be version of a Russian thread motifmasterpiece.
Scuse me while I just sit here and say Wow for a while.
wow…. wow…… wheeeee ….. Wow.
