Wow! Crochet World turns 30 years old with this issue! This is HUGE! Celebrate with us as we pull out all the stops to make this a festive occasion.

Loyal readers will notice that last issue we added 16 more pages. This allows us to present even more unique and creative crochet designs. Think of it as our anniversary gift to YOU! Many heartfelt thanks for your loyal support to help make Crochet World No. 1!

Next, congratulations to our Grand Prize Happy Anniversary Sweepstakes winner, Diane Davis of Mount Airy, N.C. This lucky lady will receive the grand-prize package worth over $750. Turn to names of our 10 runners-up. They will receive a year-long subscription to Crochet World and a DRG hardcover crochet book. Many thanks to the thousands of you who entered. Every single state was represented as well as numerous foreign countries. Crochet World really does cover the world!

As you can see on the cover, Agnes Russell's talented crochet hook created a gem of a tablecloth. Made from size 10 crochet cotton, her 60 x 84-inch rectangular beauty contains 70 individual square motifs. They feature pineapples (her favorite!) and clusters. Before the second motif was finished, Agnes' daughter-in-law claimed it for her own! We know she'll enjoy it through the years and pass it along to the next generation. It's already an heirloom piece.

Maria Merlino delighted us with the Happy Anniversary Afghan. She took our logo and creatively put it into yarn form. Our loyal Crochet World fans will enjoy making and using this one as much as we will. Thanks, Maria!

April also offers plenty of Make It in a Day designs such as the pretty girl's In Her Easter Bonnet cloche. Longtime Crochet World contributor, Katherine Eng, sent us a lovely Watercolors Patchwork Pillow that makes up in less than five hours. And her Twinkle Belt will take less than two! Thanks too, Kathi!

Inside you'll find plenty of other fast, unique, practical AND fun designs as well.

Here's to our next 30 years!

From the world of crochet,
