Crochet guides you through the basic techniques and stitches—presented clearly and simply with step-by-step photographs—covering the relevant abbreviations and symbols on the way. Beginners can work through the comprehensive and easy-tofollow techniques section in the first part of the book, stopping along the way to try out a mini project to practice the stitch they have just learned. More experienced crocheters can dip into this section to revisit stitches they already know.
The mini projects include items ranging from a simple chain stitch bracelet (pp. 30–31) to a stylish intarsia pillow (pp. 122–123). Once you are confident with all the crochet stitches, you can launch into the projects chapter and begin making crocheted items as diverse as a traditional granny blanket (pp. 148–151) for a baby, a tiny flower pin cushion (pp. 184–185), and a little girl’s summer tunic dress (pp. 246–249).
With more than 80 projects to choose from, there is something for everyone: from blankets and pillows, to hats and scarves; gloves, socks, and slippers; items for the home; garments and bags; plus a range of charming toys to make. Crochet will enable you to make your own unique, custom-made crocheted pieces for yourself, your home, and your family and friends.
