Welcome to Caron Connections, your free e-newsletter from Caron International.

Make a resolution to try something new!
We make it easy with "beginner plus" patterns!

It's a new year and a great time to try something new! Have you tried felting yet? If you are a knitter, have you dabbled in crochet yet? And you crocheters, have you thought about picking up knitting needles? And what about sampling some new yarns? In this issue of Caron Connections, we've assembled a variety of super-easy patterns in knit and crochet—great for first-timers in everything from knit to crochet to felting, with a little fashion excitement thrown in. Enjoy!
