The Art of Yarn

It’s the end of the week and it seems to have flown past, well it did for me. This was probably due to getiing so engrossed in finishing my Tutti Frutti Daisy blanket. Anyway I aften like to put together a treasury of Friday and this weekend’s treasury is ‘The Art of Yarn. The collection is almost entirely crochet – just as it should be. I also think putting together a treasury on Etsy is a good way to support fellow Etsy-er’s, crocheter’s and yarn-o-hollics.
I’m including a couple of the beautiful items below,, please click under the photo to go directly to that shop or

Before I go if any of you have Etsy shops then please leave a comment giving the name of your shop and I will be sure to add it to my favourites and feature some of your items in future treasury's.

As ever have a great weekend.

The wonderful world of Free Form crochet.
What is freeform? Freeform crochet is like painting. The hook is a brush and the yarn a paint. The result can be abstract or realistic. Freeform is original design, not a reproduction of another person's pattern, it goes beyond the realm of patterns and restrictions that usually apply toward our art. The outcome is a piece of art like no other, not only functional, but beautiful as well. Freeform includes 2-D and 3-D art, clothing and useful items.   Please come in and get to know us better!
