Crafting Japanese in the news
Two big pieces of Crafting Japanese news:
Craftypod interviewed me for a podcast about Japanese Craft Books!
Crafting Japanese got mentioned in a real life magazine that I bought at the store! Kim, the editor of Crochet Me, wrote a nice column for knit.1 about amigurumi and included this site. Welcome any new knit.1 readers!
