If you're looking for an unusual new way to connect edges in your crocheted afghans and other suitable projects, you might find the Loop & Lace method to be a fun alternative. This technique has gained in popularity over the past decade, but surprisingly, many crocheters haven't tried it, and some are not even aware of it.

Fibersphere, LLC has created a combination pen and measuring tape. With the All-in-One Measuring Pen, you can write down your rows as you crochet or knit, and measure your gauge with one handy tool! The pen is also great to take along on shopping trips when you need to make purchasing notes or take measurements. The retractable tape measure includes both inches and centimeters on the same side so there's no flip-flop when you need to measure centimeters.
Five percent of all sales of the pink All-in-One Measuring Pens is donated for breast cancer research. The pink pens include words and symbols of love, hope, dreams, encouragement and finding a cure for breast cancer. The collection even includes pens with slogans for knitters and crocheters.
The All-in-One Measuring Pen is available at local yarn shops. For more information, visit www.thefibersphere.com or www.patchworkfrog.com.
