Bernat’s Yarn Tasting with Mikey – Live Event

November 16, 2011 by TheCrochetCrowd

Loom Knitting Demonstrations and Tutorial Teaching
Join Mikey Live On December 3rd, 2011 at Bernat’s Factory Outlet (Spinrite) in Listowel Ontario.

Bernat’s Live Event

12 Crochet Gifts of Christmas Feature

Mikey’s back at Bernat (Spinrite Factory Outlet) on December 3rd, 2011 between 10 am – 3 pm. This is when Mikey will be hook’n up a storm and creating a fun atmosphere. We laugh, share and connect with others who are totally into the fibre arts.

This time, bring your size J or 6.0 MM crochet hook or you can buy one at the store if you forget. We are going to be playing with a quick project idea that you can make for yourself or even better, whip it up for a loved one for a Christmas gift! I’ve never taught crochet at Bernat and this will be my first opportunity. You can either watch and learn or buy a ball of yarn and begin immediately with me.

You will be able to see all the products made for AllFreeCrochet’s 12 Crochet Gifts of Christmas at Bernat.

This is a free workshop event.  Watch for Bernat’s Flyer for exact details and what December’s sales are going to be!

Hope to see you there! 🙂 Enjoy

Michael

Crafting Creates Communities

October 19, 2011 by TheCrochetCrowd

I love when communities come together and no one is holding fire torches or pitch forks. It reminds me how amazing our Facebook groups are at The Crochet Crowd and AllFreeCrochet.

Today, I happened to notice a comment that suggested to me that a woman writing a comment sounded a bit lonely and was needing a friend. I sat back and thought.

“If my hunch is right, what can I do to help her?”

The woman is a great crocheter and she’s in a group of amazing other crocheters… maybe she just needs someone to connect with.

So this thought pattern led me to post a comment about making new friends. I am still in disbelief about how many people were interested in creating friendships. Some people got so excited they made so many friends they got a locked out from making more Facebook friends for 48 hours. I never thought Facebook had a spam protector like YouTube.

This is a strong reminder to me that “we need each other”. I love when flukes like this happen. Many people had a great day today over a very simple idea. It’s amazing how little it takes to make a difference.
