Another Edition of Crochet Link Love!

Of all of the crochet-related posts I read this week, these were the ones I thought you shouldn’t miss!

Something Special

Mollie Makes magazine released a one-off issue this week called Mollie Makes Home. I don’t know everything that is in it but I do know that some of the crochet includes a granny square motif pillow and a beginner’s granny blanket. The images are lovely.
