Tonight I had the opportunity to teach my Mum and Miss E how to complete a latch hook kit. I have been looking for these kits online and at Spotlight and Lincraft but online were expensive and the others didn't stock them anymore.
Two weeks ago as I was going to Big W to buy a book, as we were walking past a small art & craft store, there sitting on the front shelf was latch hook kits and they were also cheap or so I thought until on Friday we went to Big W again and they were on sale so I had to purchase another kit.It might just become my new crafting obsession! Mum was with me and decided that she wanted to give Latch Hooking a try and purchased the beginner kit with just a few colours.
I had never heard of Latch Hooking until we caught up with a local home-school craft group and some of the children were completing latch hook kits that their mother had found at an op shop. Even she had been looking for the kits without any success.

What I really like about them is how simple they are to complete especially compared to either a cross-stitch or long-stitch kits. For beginners such as Miss E and Mum, they are uncomplicated and easy to get started and quick to see the results.
Once we have finished, Miss E wants to turn her creation into a pillow for her bed and Mum was talking about making a pillow as well but to use it for the lounge room. Miss E has been busy working hard to complete hers and has almost finished, once its complete I must make sure to take a photo before we make the pillow.
Stay Tuned :-)
