This is one of the books coming my way after virtually digging through the hurt and overstocked bargain bins at the Interweave Hurt and Overstock Books sale. Hurt refers to the fact that your books may be a little bruised or bent since they’ve been around for awhile, but some may be in perfectly good shape. You won’t know until you get them in your hot little hands, but considering many craft books are going for 50 to 75% off the list price, who cares about a little ding here or there? For example, the book pictured above 200 Crochet Blocks lists for $24.95, but it’s marked down to $12.48. Since I make blocks for Heartmade Blessings, I picked this up for some block ideas. I think my granny squares and double crochet blocks are getting a little stale.

Some other excellent crochet books deals include Double Stitch on sale for $5.49. This book has been on my Amazon wish list for awhile, but I have a feeling it’s going to be a little too trendy for me, but hey, for five bucks, even if I see one pattern I like, I’m good with that. Other crochet titles include Crochet Me, Blueprint Crochet, and 101 Stitches to Crochet, good crochet stuff folks! There are also knitting books, mixed media, jewelry books (tons actually), and lots more covering all kinds of crafting. Be aware that the price does not include shipping, so expect an additional $10 for that. Yes, I know, but every place these days is killing you with the cost of shipping. Even with that, you’ll still get books for way below the cost you’d pay in a regular books store or at many of the web stores too.
