Crochet Christmas List

[Chiscrochetcrazy]

I was wondering what was on everyones Crochet gift list for Christmas. I just can't think of much to ask for or get myself

 

So what is the 1 thing you would love to get for Christmas

[heart]

Crochet?.....Happy Hooker book. (I know I'm one of the last few who hasn't bought it yet), or a happy stash of new yarn!

[SDmom]

I would love to get one of those light up crochet hooks- the largest size they make them in. I simply cannot justify paying $35 for one hook- my wallet can't either!

[Phoenix]

Honestly? One of those "natural light" floor lamps so I can see to work with black yarn...or any dark yarn at night. Not gonna happen, but I can dream

an OTT Light

Last weekend as part of my xmas gift DH let me go nuts in Mary Maxims Craft store and boy did I Got lots of yarn, needles, books, etc I was a very Happy Camper

I'm like you Alisha. I did get the Edgerydoo. That will be something sort of new. I wouldn't mind a splurge @ Hobby Lobby or Michael's !!

I just wanted to comment on the people that said they wanted an Ottlight. I bought one last year at Joann's. I used a 50% off coupon on it so the price was much more reasonable. It really did save me alot of money. I like my light alot because you don't get hot underneath it.

Keep the list coming I'm getting some ideas

Ditto! Herrschners has them on sale for under $50 (Not really the one I want, but wouldn't complain if I got it!)

I already got my Xmas gift. I got 40 skeins of lion brand boucle, as hubby got it at the Dollar Tree, and I got my Singer 7468 sewing machine.

I'd like an Ott light. Thanks Karin for the tip on using a coupon at JoAnns!

 

And (doing a happy dance) I'm getting the 2nd and 3rd Happy Hooker books! DH and I were in Borders, and they were on a buy 2 get 1 free table. Sooo, I told him that's what I wanted. Oh, and he got to pick out the free book! I haven't peeked at them yet, but I like the first book, so these will be fun!

a new monitor

 

I like how you think. The monitor is a part of my crochet tools as well; I just hadn't thought it thru that way.

 

Good one

Y'know, for those looking for Ott lights and can't quite manage the funding for them, here's an alternative suggestion: Dh and I both suffer a little from SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder--where the brain chemistry becomes depressed due to lack of sunlight), and he found those lightbulbs that give off full-spectrum light. They are the spiral kind, and not flourescent--they actually have mercury in them instead (so, when they go out, they must go out with hazardous waste) and last 7 years. They also save on energy. One 60-watt light equivalent really only uses about 13 watts of power. One bulb costs about $7-8, but what's that compared to $100?

 

Back to the topic on-hand, my entire list was crochet items! Additional steel hooks, wooden hooks, books, patterns, yarns, threads, the 2007 CPAD calender, and a bunch of other stuff!!

I've told everyone that's asked me the same thing; crochet hooks, yarns, pattern books, regular books and David Bowie. DH told me good luck on getting David Bowie to move in but a gal can dream.
