Twinkie Chan’s Crochet Goodies for Fashion Foodies Book Review & Giveaway

Random.org has spoken and our winner is number 21, Cheryl J! Congrats!!

Twinkie Chan’s Crochet Goodies for Fashion Foodies is an all around adorable book. It’s colourful and fun to look at.

It’s well written and easy to follow. Twinkie Chan adds food flair even to the materials list which she calls “Ingredients”.

Don’t crochet and don’t have time to learn? Twinkie Chan has an Etsy shop where you can buy the finished pieces.

It was really hard to choose what to make so in the end I decided upon the Cupcake Hat. Who doesn’t love cupcakes? I really liked that it looks more complicated than it really is while keeping it interesting. It can easily be made up in a weekend or during the week to wear for the weekend! It’s so cute that you’ll want to wear it as often as you can.

 

I don’t want to give this book away, I love it, but alas, what’s a giveaway without something to give away? Let me know in the comments what your favourite sweet treat is along with your e-mail address by Tuesday, March 20 for your chance to win this super cute book!!

    i found this book at powell’s in portland, or – an autographed copy just sitting there on the shelves! i of course bought it without a second thought. absolutely love it – as do all the people i work with who have wish lists for me to make for them. i’m waiting to clear my project list so i can start working on these. my first one will probably be the pizza scarf for my tween son. can’t wait!

    Peanut Butter Cups and other American PB candy. It’s not a common thing to find over here though, so I have to be sparing – a bag of Reece’s Pieces costs me over $3!

    My favorite sweet treat is… there are so many! Ice cream, brownies, cookies, cupcake with buttercream frosting, pie… And Peeps! I love Peeps! And M&M’s! I love crocheting, too — something to do with my hands besides push sugar in my mouth.

    ? I would have such a blast with this book!! *crosses fingers. ?

    Alright, well, I am a cupcake baking freak and so, my favorite desert (and default comfort food) by far, chocolate chip strawberry shortcake cupcakes adorned in buttercream icing with only 2 cutie-bootie chocolate chips placed off-center to make it extra beautiful.
    Theyre pink and girly and simply scrumptious!!

    Fun stuff! My favorite treat…I don’t know what they’re called, but they’re those squares made with marshmallows and stuck together with peanut butter and caramel chips. mmmmmmmm….

    OK, I’m not entering the drawing, but I just had to comment about this book. I got the Kindle version just so I could make the Candy Dots scarf for a friend. I tried to figure out how to make it on my own, but broke down and got the book. TOTALLY worth it. Simple directions made it easy to whip through. Looking forward to working my way through the other projects, too.

    This looks like such a fantastic book. Thank you so much for hosting this giveaway. I am a sucker for anything lemon. Girl Scouts came out with a new lemon cookie (Savannah Smiles) that is absolutely to die for.
