Sponsor

We have some wonderful sponsors for this CAL! One of our sponsors is Ficstitches!

The Secret Stitch by C. Jane Reid is an exciting hard to put down historical (fiction) novel.  Knitting is not the focus of this great novel, but is a great companion for the character as she is learning a new useful skill.

This great book “The Secret Stitch: Unraveling the New World” by C. Jane Reid and “The Secret Stitch A Crochet Companion” by Laurinda Reddig, will make great additions for a Holiday Spa Basket.

 Be sure to check out the Book Review that Pia @ Stitches ‘N’ Scraps did over both books!
