A Note From the Editor
Among them you'll find our Winner's Circle All You Need Is Love Table Set, the heart-themed Victorian Sweetheart Pillow, a sparkling Charming Hearts bracelet and necklace set and the Hearts & Flowers Filet Afghan. Also included are two beautiful lace table pieces -- the Garnet Roses Table Runner and Signs of Spring Doily. With so many tempting choices, all you have to do is make the difficult decision of which project to stitch first!
You're also sure to enjoy the different colorwork techniques featured in our Color Magic projects. Whether it's working with simple color changes, creating overlay patterns with long stitches or simply letting the colorway of the yarn work its magic, you’ll find the patterns in this section fun to make.
So grab your hooks, yarn and thread and start stitching away on this issue's heartfelt projects. It's all about the love -- for your family, your friends and of course, crochet.
Happy stitching,
