It must be love
H
appy new year! It’s not too late to write this, right? As we
look ahead to 2019
after a few months of furiously getting all of our festive makes finished, it’s time to
indulge in a little selfish crochet.
This is the thought I had when I commissioned
this selection of lovely love-inspired projects; it’s important that we take time every day
to
appreciate and love ourselves,
and what better way to do that then through our
favourite therapeutic yarn craft?
Indulge yourself with a new
luxuriously soft jumper
with delicate heart details on
page 24, or treat yourself to a brand-new blanket that will take
only one evening to
make!
The Huge Hygge throw uses Woolly Mahoosive squiggly (what a name) – find out
more on page 30 and don’t forget to
save yourself 20%
on the cost of the yarn! Not
everyone is like me though, and they always make things for others (I am a very selfish
crocheter!) so we’ve included plenty of
inspiration for others
as well as for you. The
Celtic Fable cowl on page 12 is a
great unisex design
for the partner in your life, and
the Friendship shawl on page 68 is the perfect way to show those close to you that they
are
important to you.
Back to the selfish crochet though, as soon as we got our hands on
Wallace & Gromit
I just knew we had to have them in the magazine – I am such a huge fan of
The Wrong
Trousers!
Grab your
brand-new crochet hooks
and start hooking Alison’s charming
amigurumi on page 14 – the perfect gift for yourself after all that gift giving, eh?
Goodbye for now!
