Crochet Friendly LYS List!

We at the CLF believe that we need to put our money where our mouth is! That's right, if someone IS crochet friendly, give them your business!

This is the current list of Crochet Friendly LYS as compiled by our dear member and moderator Smurf/Alison! She's a gem and I owe her much thanks for her organisational skills!

All recommendations here have been made by members of the Crochet Liberation Front!

Don’t see your favourite crochet-friendly LYS listed? Come and sing their praises here!! (Last updated 15 Feb 08)
