LaviShea Lotion Bar, 1.25-Ounce, The Yarn Bar

I occasionally have some dry hand issues when crocheting, especially in winter, so this seemed like a great Christmas in July/Hanukkah in the Heat item to stock up on. What a great gift for my yarnie friends!!

LaviShea presents The Yarn Bar. This fragrance has the aroma of a light flaky pastries with a sweet almond filling. Cozy and scrumptious. All our lotion bars are made with unrefined fair trade shea butter and 100% natural soy, complimented with premium skin-safe fragrance. It is great for scrap bookers, knitters, crocheters, weavers, needle pointers, crafters and even those who like to garden. Portable and convenient for travel, our lotion bar absorbs quickly and completely without leaving a greasy residue, penetrating deep into the skin to re-hydrate and moisturize.

Introducing the Furls Odyssey!

Furls is debuting a brand new crochet hook this week – and it’s gorgeous!! It’s called the Odyssey, and here’s the details:

–       This hook is a state-of-the-art 2 piece construction, with a nickel-plated pewter neck and a cosmetic grade black resin body, packaged in a red-wine velvet foam box

–       The pewter neck of the hook is chrome-smooth, making for easy stitches and great crocheting speed

–       The resin body of the hook is extremely light weight

–       This weight differential creates a unique center of gravity in the hook which gives it a lot of inertia. This means when energy is driven through the hands and into the hook, it stays in the hook as crocheting momentum and takes less physical strain to work through stitches and continue crocheting

–       The Odyssey is made in a new streamlined shape which is extremely comfortable to grip. While not as ergonomic as their Candy Shop and Alpha Series models, the body shape of the Odyssey relieves acute tension in the joints and ligaments around your knuckles, hands, and wrists

And check out this beauty:

Furls Odyssey - gorgeous new #crochet hook!

I can’t wait to get my hands on it! And it’s debuting at an even more amazing price: The Odyssey hooks are only available at $24.99 during the presale period to the first 1000 crocheters to purchase. The 1000 crocheters to get their First Edition Furls Odyssey on presale will become Honorary Furls Crocheters, to be proudly commemorated for what they helped bring to market, and to receive lifetime 10% discounts on all their future orders from Furls.

So… CLICK HERE to order your own Furls Odyssey! (affiliate link) Act fast and get on the list!

The Granny Square Book: Timeless Techniques and Fresh Ideas for Crocheting Square by Square

Granny squares are to crochet what pieced squares are to quilting. They originated with pioneer women using up precious scraps of yarn to make blankets for their families, and over the years, many recognized, named patterns have been handed down from one generation to the next. Beyond this treasury of 75 different granny square motifs, Margaret Hubert shows the evolution of the granny square, how it can be used and interpreted in different ways with different yarns, and how today’s crocheter can design her own projects using the granny squares of her choice with the yarn choices of today. Just as Margaret learned from her grandmother and mother and then passed the skill down to her daughter and granddaughter, each generation finds new uses and artistic ways to interpret granny squares.
