Love, love, love this daily candy!!! Read on!


In Stitches
From Daily Candy


You threw out your copy of Domiknitrix and dropped out of Stitch ’n’ Bitch. (Some talents you have. Some you don’t.)
Which doesn’t mean that people more talented than you don’t know how to make crochet very — dare we say — cool.
Simply IrresistibleThat’s exactly how you’ll feel about A.S.I.S.’s super-cute crochet earrings. The little gems come in shades of blue, red, green, white, black, and gold. The designs dangle perfectly from your lobes, adding just the right amount of jazziness to any outfit.
Get Your Hammock OnNothing screams “I heart summer!” like Binetti’s Hammock bag. Made of crochet with fringe along the bottom, it comes in white or natural with an attached key fob and a leather base to help keep its shape.
Wren Tin TinHumidity wreaks havoc on summer hair. Draw attention away from the frizz with Wren Handmade’s adorable crochet hair clips. They come in a plethora of floral designs and colors and cost just twelve bucks a pop.
They’re the perfect thing to show (not sew) and tell.
