Crochet:
Tools of the Trade Crochet
| Left to Right: Clover Takumi Set, Boye Aluminum Set, Crystal Palace (bamboo), Boye Size P (grey), Boye Size Q (blue) Of course you need more than whats in the image above. You'll need tapestry needles, some clover lock stitch markers small and jumbo, a stitch counter(for more advanced patterns) and of course a clover yarn cutter. You get all these tools online below are some places I a a proud customer of. Whenever I'm to lazy to look for the best deals myself. Joann.comThe mega online store for crafty needs. The pros are they always have sales. So if you are a saavy shopper wait until your eagle finds a decent deal then go nuts! Yarn Market Reputable. Excellent prices. They do not carry Clover brand Hooks or Needles. But they do carry Addi Turbo and Crystal Palace Knitting Warehouse Excellent prices! |
That's a basic rundown of what you'll need. I could go into the tools and why you need them where you can get them but that requires a whole separate post. Yes I am being lazy lol.
