So Simple Crochet

[princsstrish]

I was in my LYS today, yes i bought something. But they had just gotten in a new book "So Simple Crochet" I think it's brandy new and maybe was even out before the official published date. I was enthralled by the projects and will have to go back to get the book. anyone have it and have tried any of the projects??

 

I also picked up the 2006 Crochet PAD Calendar. It is by far, the coolest thing ever and am so glad I finally found it!!!!!!

Haven't heard of that one. No reviews on Amazon either. Let us know what you think when you have more time to look it over and/or try the projects. What types of projects does it include?

 

Thanks!

HI !

 

Can you tell me where you got the calendar:)

I can't believe it! I bought the book today at Barnes & Noble, and I didn't realize it was the one you posted about until I got back home and started reading over the new posts. I can't wait to make the Chunky Blue Beret! I love the scarf on the next page too, but the yarn recommened would cost around $60. Yikes!
