New Book on Crochet

This is about a new book on crochet coming out in Sweden.

I hope it will be available in english eventually.

 

'Crocheting is among the simplest you can do.' 

So say the authors of this book and I can only agree.

 

'Virka mera' (crochet more), is a modern book on crochet.

It teaches the basics of crochet as well as it inspires to developement of the techniques.

 

The instructions are clear in both word and image.

The swatches are in colors that clearly show the texture of the patterns. The only disadvantage for those who don't understand swedish is that the patterns lack charts with crochet symbols.

 

The book contains some 40 patterns for children, adults and the home.

I love this shawl!

I've already looked through my stash and there are some color combinations to choose from.

It can be classic or elegant or awesome!

 

 

A nice shopping tote or a practical bag.

Stylish and useful!

 

 

The finest pillow on the couch!

 

The book summarizes what craft and needlework means to me.

Function, aesthetics and high quality materials.
