SAINT PATRICK'S DAY

 

As a child, I would often kneel on all fours, searching for that elusive four leaf clover.  The ground was covered with thousands of dew sprinkled three leaf ones, but finding the "lucky" one was always a challenge.  This mutation of the shamrock only happens in approximately "1 in 10,000 times."

My fortune changed when I was introduced to Clover Needlecraft, Inc., a few months ago.  Fox Publishing had forwarded me the book "Bead Weaving on a Loom" which I subsequently reviewed on my blog site at http://www.rite-it.com/ and I noted it featured the Clover Beading Loom 9910 on the inside cover.    

 

It is lightweight and very well constructed.  One can easily follow the directions and warp the loom and adjust the tension.  I have made numerous length adjustments to accommodate my various beading projects ranging from bracelets and rings, to necklaces and pendants.  The 2.8" width dimension makes all of the above very wearable and aesthetically pleasing. The warp thread spacing groves (A & B) are utilized for either round or cylinder beads.  If one changes the intervals between the warp threads and tightens the weft threads, the weaver can utilize a myriad of bead sizes.

Clover Needlecraft (www.clover-usa.com) is a treasure trove of supplies for all hands-on-needlecraft enthusiasts.  Thread, kits, templates, knitting, crochet, embroidery, etc., products, are available in all sizes and prices.  The catalog and shopping cart is user friendly and their service is impeccable.

If you believe in the "luck of the Irish" you will be happily rewarded when you explore all that Clover Needlecraft, Inc., has to offer.  The choice is yours.
