Top Value Chunky is a 100% acrylic
yarn that is available in 16 bold and
beautiful shades that combines
great value with versatility. It's
machine washable and soft to work

IT ALL STARTED
WITH A HOOK
This beautifully handmade
crochet hook, made from
polymer clay, is just one
hook from For The Love of
Yarn that is ergonomically
designed to reduce wrist
strain and aid even tension.
The thumb-grip shape works
equally well for both pen and
knife-grip users, and it all
started when founder Lisa
wanted to make sure she
could help her mum with
crochet when she became a
mum herself! Find out more
about Lisa’s story, these
wonderful hooks, and shop
the full range online today.
