Come Cruise March 8th, 2017 With Us

Be part of the yarn fun on The Crochet-Cruises.com with The Crochet Crowd hosted by Mikey and Diva Dan.

It’s more then just crocheting on a ship, it’s about the laughs and being part of a larger community to meet new friends and to learn new ideas.

We HOOK, we DANCE and we enjoy the adventures to our destinations.

Crocheting just doesn’t get any better!

Hookin’ the High Seas With The Crochet Crowd

Both Michael and I love to cruise but that was not so in the beginning. A few years ago we went on our first cruise and well, it was not what we expected it to be. It was disappointing. Michael never thought to bring his crochet! So what happened, he went a little stir crazy. Me on the other hand, you can sit me on the balcony and life is great!

That very first cruise we came to realize we were missing a important part of having fun on a cruise and that is having friends and for Michael, it was getting to know people to crochet with and gossip. So we thought, what if we invited our community to join us for a good hookin’ old time on the high seas! A year later we did our first Crochet cruise, and now a few cruises later, we have created something entirely amazing. A community that loves getting together, re-meeting each other on future cruises, laughing, expressing comfort & thankfulness and most importantly, sharing our love, passion and knowledge of crochet.

Cruising is like a floating hotel taking you to exotic destinations to discover a whole wonderful adventure beyond the everyday hassles at home. Cruising is exciting, giving you a taste of island paradises and far north communities.

Whether you are a seasoned cruiser or a newbie who have always wanted to get away to have enjoy time to yourself, we have created the Crochet Cruises for those that love to crochet!

It is about getting together as a cyber community. With your stateroom, food, entertainment and even casinos, are all provided on these cruises, you can enjoy and explore more then just wrapping a ball of yarn ~ Diva Dan
