Supplies for the Crocheter

Crocheters of all skill levels will love the supplies, organizers, and craft books in our 2012 Holiday Guide.  Knitters and crocheters alike will get great use out of The Knook, one of the newest and hottest products to hit the crafting market.  The Knook handle helps keep your yarn secure, so there's no more dropped stitches to chase after or worry about.  The Knook also comes with a pocket size instruction book, as well as a few other sized Knook needles to help you get the job done.  For the hard core knitting and crochet fans, the Knook is the perfect stocking stuffer!

Another hot item that crochet fans will love finding in their stockings are Lion Brand's BonBons Collections.  Available in a variety of colors, BonBons come in a package of 8 similar colors.  These miniature skeins of yarn are perfect for any project requiring multiple colors such as amigurumi, colorwork, embroidery, and embellishments.  Choose from one of six packages of BonBons, or buy them all for a gift that any yarn lover is sure to love!

And as a special gift to you, we included a free crochet pattern for you to use or to include in your gift package.  This Blue Slouchie Beanie is easy to make and great to give to teens and young adults.  Combine this pattern with a BonBons kit so the receiver can crochet their own embellishment!

Supplies for the Quilter

The great thing about this 2012 Holiday Gift Guide is that it contains some of the hottest crafting supplies of this past year...perhaps there are even some products that you never even knew existed!

I, for one, had never heard of the Quilter's FabriCalc Design & Fabric Estimating Calculator, but I'm so glad I did!  Now I have a new addition to my own wish list!  This amazing machine helps you calculate your total quilt yardage and helps you find just how much fabric you'll need for blocks, squares, triangles, sashing, diamonds, and more.  This is a must-have tool for sewists and quilters, and it's sure to pay for itself after you've completed just one quilt!

I think most of us can agree that completing a quilt takes work and patience.  But with the help of the All-In-One QUilter's Reference Tool, quilters can rest assured that all their crafty questions will be answered!  This convenient pocket-size reference guide has chapters on bed and quilt sizes, yardage requirements, cutting, piecing, and so much more.  Combine this small book with one of the other products found in the Quilting section of our 2012 Holiday Gift Guide and you'll have a great present any quilter or sewist would love.
