Designs to Fuel the Crochet Revolution
Join the crochet revolution! Young designers everywhere are making
crochet their own with hip, edgy, stylish designs that are toppling the
frumpy, uncool image of the craft. Crochet Me: Designs to Fuel the Crochet Revolution by Kim Werker, editor of Interweave Crochet
magazine and founder of the online community CrochetMe.com, offers 18
designs from emerging crochet artists certain to get those hooks
moving.
How did the crochet renaissance get started? Read short essays about
experimenting with crochet to empower readers to take design risks. The
projects run the spectrum from crochet jewelry to thigh-high stockings,
retro bags, scarves, sweaters, shrugs, camis, home decor objects, and
more. Projects explore color, texture, design, embellishment, and how
to customize patterns to fit personal style. Basic crochet techniques
will be covered along with tutorials on sizing, design, and special
techniques. Up-and-coming designers are profiled throughout the book to
give an entertaining and inspiring insight into this new generation of
crocheters - what inspires them, how they find community with other
crocheters, and creative ideas for breaking the rules and representing
their individual crochet style. This book will empower everyone to
start their own crochet revolution. This is crochet for the people!
