TBT -Crochet World

Yesterday I spent some time organizing my Crochet mags and came across this blast from the past…

vintage October 1984 issue of Crochet World.  
In 1984 at 12 years old, I had just learned to Crochet from my Grandma G.  Using Red Heart SuperSaver in a bright orange, making a tube top for my Barbie doll.  At that time there weren’t many computers,  and certainly no Internet.  So these issues included… 
yep, remember classifieds? 
For all the yarn scraps we have, this is something that could still come in handy…

And some vintage yarn humor…
Orlon is a Acrylic yarn that looks similar to Perle Cotton, and available at Yarn Barn
Enjoy!

I live with my family in Neenah, WI. My day job is working at our local library. I spend time everyday exploring the art of crochet. Everyday life inspires my work from family to nature.
