A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Crochet is a varied craft form with everything from thick, yarn afghans to delicate lace doilies. It's hard to find a book that covers it all, and when you do, most books are large and heavy - not something you can carry with your project for easy reference. Here is a handy little volume that is filled with stitch patterns and the basics for all types of crochet, so you can stash it in your workbag and have a host of information and ideas at your fingertips. The basics section at the beginning of the book has complete instructions, both illustrated and written, for all the stitches needed to make the samples in the book. At the end of the book are instructions for several sample projects that you can customise to your tastes by picking stitch patterns throughout the book. You'll find this little book has big potential to guide you on your way in making beautiful creations in crochet.
