The crochet journal I call my magic tool
My best seller: a vintage-look printable journal that’s inspiring, a little funny, and nothing like a plain planner. Inside: hook conversion chart, stitch symbol guide, yarn stash inventory, row counter, pattern notes, and more.

This gingerbread man can be used as an ornament or fridgie, or add a few to a wreath! I’m sewing several together at the hands to make a garland for my kitchen window. You can also make a larger one for a stuffed toy by using a larger hook.
