Yesterday I was looking through 100 Crochet Projects by Jean Leinhauser & Rita Weiss. I found all kinds of quick, easy projects that suddenly reminded me of how close we are to Christmas already. I found teddy bears and snowflake earrings, shawls and vests, scarves and purses. With a little thought to the people on your Christmas list, you could have a lower-cost holiday if you work out of your scrap basket and get a little done whenever you sit down to crochet.
If you want to be a little more fancy with your gifts (even if it's a gift to yourself), we have Felted Crochet, Crocheted Socks, Designer Beadwork: Beaded Crochet Designs, and Knit and Crochet with Beads.
Or if you really do want to work just out of your scrap basket, try One Skein Wonders by Judith Durant.
Christmas is on the way. And please, if you have any extra time, check out www.soldiersangels.org to make lap robes for the wounded soldiers.
Thanks, and happy crafting.
