How to create yarn wrapped letters.

[Editor's Note: When it comes to yarn letters – no pain no gain. What? You didn’t know crafting sometimes hurt. Well wait until you start wrapping wooden letters in yarn and your fingertips are burnt to a crafty little crisp. Cranny + B has posted a great tutorial about creating your own set of yarn wrapped letters. They may hurt like heck to make, but the end result is so cute they are worth it. Spell out an entire word, make a set of initials or perhaps choose just one special letter. For someone who does not knit or do much crochet I am always looking for projects that enable me to play with all the beautiful colors of yarn out there. - Jen]  Read more

Natural yarn dying alternatives.

[Editor's Note: Did you know you can dye yarn with fruit and vegetables? Neither did I, but my friend Vickie Howell taught me all about it. Spices and juices make great organic dyes for everything from Easter eggs to ice crayons to yarn. Vickie experimented with blueberries, spinach, beets and more with varying degrees on success. Check out her full post to learn more. - Jen]  Read more
