CraftWorld Magazine Issue 20: February 2023
Welcome to issue 20 of CraftWorld Magazine, the only magazine dedicated to bringing free inspiration to sewists, papercrafters, knitters and crocheters every single month! I’m so excited to be taking over the helm, and I aim to continue bringing you the best inspiration each month!
This issue is packed with projects you’ll love to make, including a Pinkfresh Studio shaped cards showcase (page 8), a cosy knitted cardigan (page 44) and an invisible zip masterclass (page 58). We have makes for all skill levels, and each one is designed to brighten your day.
If you’d rather just sit back with a cup of tea and a slice of cake and have a good read, there’s plenty to choose from too. I loved reading about how crafting can help our mental health (page 12). Don’t miss our interview with Stamps By Me creator Toni Darroch, who has created the How To Craft Network, whilst still designing cards and products that we love (page 28).
I hope you enjoy this issue, and if you do, please share it with your friends!
Happy crafting,
Jenn
