And the Winners for Round 9 are.....

Are you ready to see how designed each project in the Round 9 Challenge of the Battle of the Stitches?

At the beginning of April, we asked 10 crochet designers to design something fun based on the "Garden of Life" theme and using the Trellis Waves crochet stitch.  Each of them brought out a personal take on the theme and did a great job with the stitch!





Take a look at the first 8 designs, find out who won our Fan's vote and Judge's vote to take home a prize and then check out a fun surprise from our admin.
