Publisher's Synopsis
Crochet is a traditional needlecraft that has truly stood the test of time - in recent years a whole new generation of young people have taken up this wonderfully versatile craft. Crochet is quick, easy to learn, and can produce a whole range of different effects, from chunky textured fabric to delicate lacy patterns. This makes it perfect for creating children's clothes.
Making use of the wide selection of yarns available, from pure cotton pastels to soft and colourful wools, the 25 patterns are really simple and include sweaters and tops, ballet-style cardigans, hats, mitts and scarves. Each project has clear instructions, full information on yarns, stitches and techniques and beautiful photographs of the finished garment. In addition, a chapter at the beginning of the book covers basic information and essential techniques.
