Rag wreath is one of many great ideas of recycling used fabric or old clothes.  Rag wreath is great as home decor and the handmade rag wreaths are the loveliest greetings for a home!

I saw a rag wreath tutorial in a craft magazine and searched for more tutorials online.

I am basically spoilt for choice, there are so many gracious bloggers out there! Thank you all!

Below are the list of gorgeous free tutorials:

How Knitting and Crocheting Make Us Better

Sunday, May 22nd, 2011

Why do I like to crochet? I know to those who don’t knit, crochet, cross stitch, embroidery, or do any other handcrafting activities, it’s perplexing.  I love crocheting and cross stitching, very calming.  And I especially feel very, very happy when I manage to finish a pattern and years afterwards, I see the work again.  It’s historic and it reminds me that I can transform those colourful yarns into something beautiful and useable.


If you would like to read some more reasons on how knitting and crocheting make us better, do visit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWUtPb6BheA by Lion Brand Yarn. I have an account with them (easily and freely created) in which I have saved many, many free projects.  I am rather ambitious, and am currently crocheting a hat for my daughter.  Hope to finish it soon!
