Today on the YarnThing Podcast with Marly Bird: Crochet Expert Stacey Trock!
Listen in below to hear Marly and Stacey talk about how Stacey got started, Etsy, her website and so much more! This was a great show so don’t miss it!
In addition to her classes, Stacey sells kits for her patterns on her website. The great thing about kits is that you don’t have to buy a whole skein of yarn if you don’t need a lot for the patterns. There are two types of kits, the Basic Kit and the Starter Kit. The Basic kit has everything for the pattern except stuffing and is for people who already crochet and have the hooks and notions. The Starter Kit is special because it comes with absolutely everything you need: a crochet hook, darning needles, and stitch markers in addition to the yarn and pattern. The only thing you provide is stuffing! For people who don’t want a kit, Stacey is starting a dog pattern club on the 1st of April.
