Japanese Craft Stores in NYC?
ziggy073 replied to ziggy073's topic in Crochet Discussion: Everything Else
That's fine! The one you refer to is actually Kinokuniya. But thank you for the locale info! -
Hello all! I am going to be flying into NYC on August 26th for the day to mostly gather supplies for my japanese crochet obsession (books mostly). However, I was wondering if anyone knows of any other places that might carry Japanese or asian styled crochet books / supplies (like hooks, yarns, notions).... Book stores I know I will be going to for sure will be Kinokuniya, Bookoff, and Asahiya. I would love to know if anyone has ever seen if any stores carry Hamanaka yarns and hooks or cafe kitchen yarn? I'm probably going to wonder around Chinatown in the hopes I stumble across something... Any help would be much appreciated!!!!

Circular Crochet Software Wanted
ziggy073 replied to ziggy073's topic in Crochet Discussion: Everything Else
Thank you for the reply, but unfortunately this program only works for PC's and not MAC's.... Oh well.... I'll just keep looking! -
Hello all! Please forgive me if this topic has been discussed before, as I have been away from this forum for quite some time (Sorry ), but I have searched the archives and have not found an answer that works for me. I am looking for a software application for making the circular style crochet patterns that can be found in Japanese books for amigurumi or other circular patterns that use symbols. Also a program that can easily make flat patterns that use symbols. The caveat here is that I have a MAC and alot of the programs that others have suggested are mainly for PC. The type of software is obviously not exclusive to Japanese publishing companies as I saw this book at my local AC Moore and noticed they use the same style to present patterns. Also Harmony Guides uses some kind of software. Short of contacting these companies and asking flat out what they use (if they would even tell me), I wonder if anyone else has some ideas. Much thanks in advance!
