My new book is starting to ship and is landing in people’s hands!! YAY!! The official pub date is April 1, and I’m still trying to work on a cute little video trailer, but if you have pre-ordered, your book should arrive any day! If you feel inclined to leave a lil Amazon review, that would be super duper amazing, and if you already have done so, I appreciate your support so so much. I can’t wait to start seeing all your fun projects! Use the hashtag #TCAbodeALaMode if you post any finished pieces on social media, so that I can see them!
Welcome!

I received mine on Tuesday and my daughter has been making a list of everything I need to make. My personal favorite is the banana split pillow, although I may change the banana into a dish….make half a banana with a frilly edge and then attach the ice cream scoops. It’s a wonderful book, congratulations!
Finally!
Congratulations!
Save me a copy!
Hooray!!
<3 Thank you also for that beautiful round of yarn!!!!!
Hi, Ms. Twinkie I already pre ordered the book at Barnes and Noble. And it’s the best Easter gift I ever got better than the jelly beans and marshmallow peeps! I just hope that you will be arriving to New York for your book tour and starting on 3/27 I will be wearing the jelly bean scarf I have made. Thank you and God bless you.
Hi Twinkie,
I’m making the frosted animal cookie garland, I got to Row 3 of the Camel, what does tsc stand for? I’ve been searching for it online with no luck.
Hi!! AHHH You got the first typo!!! That’s just supposed to be “sc” not “tsc.”
Hi Ms. Twinkie, I already got your book from yesterday & I’m enjoying the pictures & some of the basic crochet stitches. So far I started to look at some of the patterns
looks appetizing like, the breakfast dishcloths which is small and it’s very easy for a kitchen decoration. Then, it’s the strawberry shortcake cover a perfect way for your mixer or a blender. So I will be praying for your book that it will go to the New York Times best-selling list . Thank you and God bless you.
