What’s New
As some of you may or may not know
I have been dipping my creative toes into
the world of Crochet...and I must say I love it
but have found it difficult to find some
of the different yarns that they
use here in Kingaroy or even Australia
so over the last few months i have doing some
research...and the most exciting part is
we are Now Stacking Lion Brand Yarn and
Bernat Handicrafter yarns
as you can see in the pictures ...we have only a few colours
but I will be getting more in
I have mainly been looking at Cotton at this
point as this is what myself and few others
have been chasing so if you are
looking for something lets us know
and you never know we might just be
able to get it for you :) :)
below is a few things that you can do with what we have in
stock at the moment ...More colours arriving soon :)
