Book Description

Playing with color, yarn, and crochet stitches&patterns, that's what this book is all about. It's a true inspiration for both beginner and advanced crocheters, to create beautiful and one of a kind crochet projects. New crochet patterns, as well as familiar ones, and sometimes an unexpected mix of both, are used in these 20-plus designs. The book features garments (like shawls, a vest, a cardigan, a children's poncho), as well as blankets, rugs, bags, and cushions. A wide range of styles, inspirational photography, clear project descriptions and crochet charts will leave only one question unanswered: where to start first? Most projects are crocheted using the many pretty colors in the DMC Natura natural fiber range ("XL", "Medium" and "Just Cotton") - a wonderfully soft eco-friendly produced yarn. Others are made from DMC's superwash merino "Woolly", which is 100% wool, and also lovely soft.
