🧶 What’s Inside Issue 4?
You’ve followed the chart exactly… and your elephant still looks like a lumpy ghost. Page 4’s Heart Elephant Graphgan includes smart bobbin tips and a row-by-row border strategy so your blanket turns out gift-worthy—not frog-worthy.
Arthritis made her quit crochet—until she didn’t. Vickie Beason’s story on page 2 shows how ergonomic tools, family memories, and vintage magazine racks brought her hooks back to life.
Before “crochet influencers” existed, there was Mlle. Riego. Meet the teenage crochet prodigy who published 100+ books, helped Irish women survive famine, and invented modern pattern formatting—page 5.
Your crochet feels flat. You crave texture. But every bobble you try just… flops. Page 6’s Bobble-on-the-Post Stitch tutorial teaches you to crochet bold, architectural texture that turns heads and holds its shape.
“I didn’t know what I was missing.” Page 19’s Fancy Hook Guide shares real reader confessions about finally switching to ergonomic hooks—and why they’re never going back.
Crochet helps reduce pain, delay cognitive decline, and rebuild your brain after trauma. That’s not hype—it’s science. Page 10’s Mind Over Matter article breaks down what really happens in your brain when you stitch.
You wanted a fun kitchen project. You got a potholder shaped like a sad rectangle. The Oven Mitt Set on page 7 pairs the lemon peel stitch with real shaping strategies that make your potholder flat, even, and usable.
Sock patterns are terrifying—but your toes are cold. Page 12’s Crochet Classic Socks use front post stitches for comfort and style, with sizing clearly marked for US 4–12.
Working on four WIPs, can’t find your stitch marker, and the dog just ran off with your hook? Page 17’s Dear Grandma Ange delivers tactical advice for WIP containment—without guilt, overwhelm, or buying another storage bin.
You still don’t know whether “dc” means double crochet or something else entirely. Page 23’s UK vs. US Crochet Translation Guide untangles the most frustrating stitch difference in crochet with a printable cheat sheet.
“He works inside the house.” Page 22’s Stitches of Deception: Installment 4 escalates with a secret message crocheted into lace—and a betrayal hiding inside Wycliffe Manor.
You’ve heard of Irish lace. But have you heard of oya? Page 18’s Crochet Around the World introduces you to Turkey’s secret crochet language—where chili peppers mean “I’m angry at my husband”.
