The great thing about crochet is that with yarn, a crochet hook, and a few foundational skills you can create a wide variety of projects. Once you've mastered the basics, you can explore an extensive range of stitches, patterns, and techniques. Our Crochet Mug Rug Maker Kit teaches you three common stitches and includes all the materials and instructions you need to make your own crochet mug rug designed by Laura at Tender Warm Creations. Your kit includes a skein of cotton yarn, a crochet hook, and instructions on how to complete your own cozy mug rug.

When other records are hard to find, especially before about 1850, wills and probate records may help fill the gaps. In the best circumstances, they include data about family members, age, death date, and more. Family relationships can be established, and details about the person's economic status, as well as details about who is included and who is left out of bequests can add the human element to family history.
