Live and Learn Podcast Episode 4 – Let’s Crochet Today! 

Today we celebrate the joy of crochet with two projects, draw the winner of Giveaway #1, and chat a bit about superstitions. Here's the LINK to this episode.

Patons Classic Wool Yarn - https://www.yarnspirations.com/collections/yarn/products/patons-classic-wool-worsted-yarn?variant=47070196760891

This link to Yarnspirations was the first hit when I did a search for Patons. I could not get to a manufacturer website for Patons. They are now owned by JP Coats, and that site did not have information about Patons, at least none that I found. Patons yarn is readily available at the US big box stores such and Michaels and Jo-Ann Fabrics. Classic Wool is a workhorse wool yarn at an affordable price.

Giveaway #1 winner – Delores Hunkler – Congratulations!

I asked if he ever planned to make a PDF of the pattern, or if he would allow me to post a PDF of it on my blog. He replied and very kindly granted me permission to post the pattern here. If you like the pattern, please send him a note of thanks! Apple Hat Pattern Also - a link to the Apple Hat pattern page on Ravelry.

Welcome!
