It is hard to believe that Crochet World Magazine is celebrating 35 years with its latest issue.

When you hear of publications going out of business, what is the secret of this periodical? I can’t say for certain, but it could definitely be that they offer a wide range of crochet projects that entices the creativity of many. They also keep up with current trends while balancing with tradition (an art in itself!). So congratulations Crochet World! Cheers, to many more years to come! (And if you happen to pick up the issue, check out one of my latest designs – A Day of Style Tote, I’m pretty lucky to be in this momentous issue).
