Prime Publishing Supports Scouts BSA

On May 4, 2024, Scouts BSA Troop 671 of Wildwood, Illinois hosted their annual Pancake Breakfast.  This is the Troop’s largest fundraiser each year, and helps cover the costs of camping, community service projects, leadership training, and more for their Scouts and adult leaders.

This year, Prime Publishing was proud to donate subscriptions to support Troop 671, as part of their silent auction at this fundraiser.  The lucky bidders were the recipients of a, one-year subscription to I Like Crochet , I Like Knitting, We Like Sewing, or We Like Quilting.  Along with these subscriptions, which normally cost $59.00 per year, the winning bidders received a gift basket with supplies associated with their subscription.

FaveCrafts Studio Live Sees Continued Success with Virtual Events

Northbrook, IL — Attendance records were shattered last month for FaveCrafts Studio Live. During January, more than 5,000 crafters came together in the virtual crafting studio to learn how to knit and crochet. 

On January 7, FaveCrafts and I Like Knitting proudly partnered with the famous knitting designer, Marly Bird for another successful virtual knitting class. Together, more than 2,602 participants attended the ‘Learn to Knit’ webinar on January 7, held online via Zoom. This was a new attendance record since FaveCrafts Studio Live launched in October 2020. 

Just a few weeks later, another 2,439 joined FaveCrafts and I Like Crochet for our ‘Learn to Crochet’ webinar led by crochet enthusiast, Tamara Kelly of Moogly blog. 

Both of these free, one-hour classes provided a great opportunity for both beginners and experienced knitters and crocheters to learn a new hobby from industry experts from the comfort of their own home. Viewer questions were answered in real time, and attendees received expert advice for troubleshooting common problems. 

Recordings of both classes were also made available for those that were not able to attend in real time. This also provided attendees the opportunity to re-watch the class on their own time and practice their skills. You can watch the Learn to Knit with Marly Bird video here, and the Learn to Crochet with Moogly video here.

FaveCrafts also launched a series of paid advanced knitting classes during January, as well, offering consumers the opportunity to expand their skills with three new classes: Cable Knitting, Intro to Lace Knit, and Brioche Knit Stitch. Over 65% signed up for all three classes. All classes were also recorded and emailed to participants after the event giving them the opportunity to learn and practice skills, techniques and specific areas of interest.

Our next series of advanced crochet classes begin in February. Check them out here and reserve your spot today — seats are limited!
