GENERAL NEWS

Dear Subscriber:

Just as I was getting back into the habit of posting to social media and publishing the Crochet N More Newsletter we had storms that caused us to be without power and internet for a week. We did not publish a newsletter on April 15th for that reason. Then came technical issues with the company we used to send the newsletters which resulted in no issue for April 30th.

As you know, our newsletters are free.
For years we have paid a monthly fee to a company who emailed the newsletters to you. Due to issues with that company and our need to cut costs we have decided to stop using the email service. Please note that we will post links to future newsletters on our website as well as on social media.

Also, if you would share the newsletter with your friends we would greatly appreciate it.

WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT


 

“Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life,
and when it comes, hold your head high, look it quarely in the eye and say,
'I will be bigger than you. You cannot defeat me.”

~ Ann Landers ~

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

The Lord also will be a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble, and those who know Thy name will put their trust in Thee; For Thou, O Lord, hast not forsaken those who seek Thee.

Psalm 9:9-10

 

The troubles of my heart are enlarged; bring me out of my distresses. Look upon my affliction and my trouble, and forgive all my sins. Look upon my enemies, for they are many; and they hate me with violent hatred. Guard my soul and deliver me; do not let me be ashamed for I take refuge in Thee.

Psalm 25:17-20

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change, and though the mountains slip into the heart of the sea; though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains quake at its swelling pride.

Psalm 46:1-3

 

Cast your burden upon the Lord, and He will sustain you; He will never allow the righteous to be shaken.

Psalm 55:22

 

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the Lord, "My refuge and my fortress, My God, in whom I trust!" For it is He who delivers you from the snare of the trapper, and from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with His pinions, and under His wings you may seek refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and bulwark. You will not be afraid of the terror by night, or of the arrow that flies by day; of the pestilence that stalks in darkness, or of the destruction that lays waste at noon. A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not approach you. You will only look on with your eyes, and see the recompense of the wicked. For you have made the Lord, my refuge, even the Most High, your dwelling place. No evil will befall you, nor will any plague come near your tent. For He will give His angels charge concerning you, to guard you in all your ways. They will bear you up in their hands. Lest you strike your foot against a stone. You will tread upon the lion and cobra, the young lion and the serpent you will trample down. Because he has loved Me, therefore I will deliver him; I will set him securely on high, because he has known My name. He will call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him, and honor him. With a long life I will satisfy him, and let him behold My salvation.

Psalm 91

 

For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that is to be revealed to us.

Romans 8:18

And in the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words; and He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the spirit is, becuse He intercedes for the saints according to the will of God. And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.

Romans 8:26-28

I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.

Philippians 4:13

 

And my God shall supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

Philippians 4:19

 

 

 

 

"WHEN HAS GOD BEEN YOUR REFUGE?
HOW CAN YOU HELP SOMEONE ELSE RUN TO HIM?"

This quote is from Our Daily Bread - May, 2020 Issue


"For where two or three have gathered together in My name, there I am in their midst."
Matthew 18:20

CROCHET STITCH or TECHNIQUE

(A different crochet stitch and/or tip featured in each issue...
to be added later to the Crochet Basics page)


WORKING IN ROW ENDS

Sometimes a pattern has you work rows of stitches and then to form a border or edging
you are instructed to "work in the row ends". The row ends are the first & last stitches you did on each row. If the rows are single crochet stitches then the "end of the row" refers to
making the required stitches around the first & last single crochet stitches on each row.
If the first & last stitches on the row are double crochet stitches you work around the post of the double crochet stitches. No matter what kind of stitch you are using you work around the actual stitch on the end of the row... not into the top of it.

The first photo in the following picture shows a swatch turned on its side
with the ends of the rows on the top. I used a white cotton thread to work into the
row ends so you could see where the stitches go. The second photo shows the entire
piece with a border added. I worked one single crochet into each row end, one single
into each unworked loop of the foundation chain, one single in each row end up the opposite
side, and one single in each stitch on the last row I had made. For each corner I worked
3 singles so the motif wouldn't curl up.

Crochet Tip

Extra hooks in your favorite size(s) prevents you from taking a hook from one WIP to work on another.

And saves time when you lose one!!

RE: Post on the Crochetnmore Fan Page

Crochet Tip:

If you are just learning to crochet, choose a pattern that you can finish pretty quickly. A dishcloth pattern is a great "first project".
The feeling of accomplishment that comes when you finish your very first project will give you the confidence to choose something even more challenging.

A simple hat pattern is great too. And you can donate them to a cancer center, homeless shelter or for smaller sizes to the ob ward or a center to help new mothers.

This book is a wonderful addition to any crochet library.
I've had numerous requests over the years of what to crochet for boys.
Crobots are definitely the answer!
This 96-page book is filled with numerous types of Crobot patterns as well as well-illustrated instructions for the crochet stitches, assembly stitches and other embellishments used in the patterns. The patterns are well written, some of the book is written in a small font but the pictures are wonderful.

NOTE: This book comes to you with a safety warning regarding the small parts used in the patterns. Therefore, please use your own discretion as to the age of the child you intend the gift for.

I have to tell you about this new book.
SweaterBabe.com's Fabulous & Flirty Crochet
I'm so happy to have it in my crochet library.

Katherine Lee has an eye for style and a definite knack for creating beautiful crochet patterns.
I was really happy with the large colorful project photos.
There's something for everyone!
The aspect of Fabulous and Flirty Crochet that stood out to me was the section on the yarns used in the patterns.
One page shows "actual size" photos of the yarns which makes it super easy to substitute other yarns if you want to.
For those who stay strictly to the recommended yarn in a pattern Katherine has included a yarn resource list.
The projects are very fashionable and perfect for gift giving... though I'm sure you'll have to make something for yourself :o)
I can't wait to try the Flirty Skirt and the Ruffled Strap Tank.

HUMOR


CROTOON


 

 

A kindergarten teacher was observing her classroom of children while they drew. She would occasionally walk around to see each child's artwork. As she got to one little girl who was working diligently, she asked what the drawing was. The girl replied, "I'm drawing God." The teacher paused and said, "but no one knows what God looks like." Without missing a beat, or looking up from her drawing the girl replied, "They will in a minute."
