I have been trying to add items to my GrandmaMarilynsToo shop for this sale.  I tried yarn yesterday and the colors weren’t coming out right.  I did finally get a 5 skein set of Kelly Green Yarn uploaded but don’t like the pictures.  You would not believe the yarn that I need to put on my destash shop.  I count over 20 of the see through 32 qt boxes sitting in my livingroom.

Oh, but I did get 8 books listed to my shop.  They are as follows:

1)  63 Easy-To-Crochet Pattern Stitches  LA Leaflet 555 – This book gives you the instructions for making 63 different squares to put together to make your own heirloom afghan.

2)   American Country Afghans Spring 1995 Issue – This issue contains lots of lovely afghans with the Spring theme.  It also has tips for designing your own afghan.

3)   Keepsake Crafts Beads – This book contains a section on materials, techniques, how to make your own beads, and showing you projects to give and treasure.

4)   BHG Crocheting and Knitting – 50-plus projects for your home. Traditional and Contemporary designs with easy-to-follow patterns. Book contains patterns for afghans, table covers, bedroom accessories, rugs, and accessories. It even has crib coverlets.

5) BHG Four Seasons Cross-Stitch – this book is chocked full of cross stitch patterns for spring.  It has wall hanging, doll, bib, basket, floss organizer, pillow, sweater, and hand towel designs.

6)  Complete Book of Crochet-Stitch Design – This book contains 500 classic and original patterns. You will have directions on the various stitches, International crochet symbols, a pictorial index and then the instructions.

7)  Scrap Yarn Afghans Book Two LA Leaflet 2159 – This book contains 7 afghan designs using Worsted Weight yarn.

8)  Stitch by Stitch – this is a book with courses on crocheting, knitting, sewing, and needlework.  It even has the patterns for the sewing part.

I still have quite a few books that I plan to get rid of.  It is going to take time to get all the pictures, edit them and upload them.  I will try to do it a little faster than I have up to now.  I also have lots of other supplies that will be added as time permits.
