i would love to WIN this book, so i can make such beautiful stuff.Please add me in i live in Virginia,USA.
This is such a great concept. Great for design and great for leftover yarn - of any weight, even cotton thread. A stroke of genius.

ReplyDeleteI was so thrilled to stumble upon your blog! I started a little granny garden crochet rug using yo yos after seeing a photo of one a friend had made. To see a whole book of these little hexagon charms using crochet is just super special. I simply love the banner on your blog!
ReplyDeleteI love your yo-yo's! I'm a new crocheter and look forward to my first yo-yo project.

ReplyDeleteSandra.
So,I was wondering about your banner image and now I have my answer. I love the pic and am now excited about your book...Congratulations!!
ReplyDeleteLove the yoyos!!
I have been making cloth yoyo's and then saw your new book and I thought the afghan was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. I would love to win your new book, if not I will
ReplyDeletebuy it after the winner is picked. Jan
Congratulations on the book and anniversary. This method looks very interesting!
ReplyDeleteSince we were flooded out in May, I have been on a search to replace patterns and instructions that were lost. In the process, I found your site and am completely intrigued! This reminds me so much of my grandmother's crochet projects and I have just the bag of scraps that will work for this (just happened to be upstairs with no flood damage!) Congrats on your Blog-versary!
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogiversary to you!
ReplyDeleteAs someone new to sewing and sewing yo-yo's, I was super excited to see that yo-yo's can be crocheted too! The afghan shown on your blog is absolutely beautiful and when I saw that you were offering us a chance to win a copy of your book I thought... why not try?! Win or lose, I will be getting a copy of your book. It looks great!
(You know, yo-yo's may just be tempting enough to get my 14-year old interested in crocheting. Wouldn't that be awesome!)
Awesome blog! Your work is inspiring and absolutely lovely!
ReplyDeletewould love a copy of your book

CONGRATULATIONS!!!
ReplyDeleteYour blog banner is so beautiful. It always brings a smile to my face.
It would be great to own your book, especially with your AUTOGRAPH!!!

Please do include me in your draw.
Again, congratulations on all these accomplishments.
