fashion crochet
Thursday, September 12, 2013Okay "my friend to crochet with"! Please teach me! I have a hat on the hook that I started back in July. So far, I stink at learning. I'm gonna get it though. Yep. I am.
Fashion Crochet is a really beautiful book. The projects are young and cool. And inspired from the up-to-the-minute runway trends.
It's broken down into 4 different chapters with 30 different projects in total. Wraps & Scarves, Accessories, Dresses, Skirts & Shorts, Tops & Jumpers.
There is a sketch of each project which is super fun to look at, along with in-depth instructions and ideas on how to make the project your own unique piece.
There is a wide variety of techniques including lace, granny smith squares, intarsia and hairpin crochet. (Don't be fooled. I have no idea what hairpin crochet is. But, hey! I'm willing to learn.)Each project also has the inspiration photo from the runway from designers as diverse as Christopher Kane, Marc Jacobs, Gucci and Missoni. (Those photos are fun to look at, too.)
If you are interested in receiving a copy of Fashion Crochet, please leave a comment between now and Monday, September 16, 5pm EST and the random generator number will choose a winner.
Have a great weekend!
