Recently, I was lucky enough to receive a review copy from
Sterling Publishing of CROCHET BOUTIQUE "30
Simple, stylish hats, bags and accessories" by Rachel Oglesby, published
by Lark Crafts.
Crochet Boutique has a little of everything. Rachel
describes the crochet items herself in the Introduction: "Stylish items to
adorn yourself. Cherished gifts to make for your loved ones and fashionable
accents for your home".
There is a full techniques section in the back of the book
that describes all you will need to know to crochet the items in this book.
Since most of the designs are accessory items, they all appear to be quick to
stitch. Except for the Bamboo Handle Bag (which is intermediate) they are ALL
rated beginner and easy and use mostly #4 worsted or #5 bulky weight yarns.
Need a quick gift for a trendy relative? This book has many crochet items that
fit the bill. I can see several items that I will be making for my daughters
this Christmas!
If you are on Ravelry, you can see all 30 projects HERE!
Would you like to own this book? Lark Crafts has graciously offered to give away a copy of Crochet Boutique to ONE lucky winner! To be eligible to win, please COMMENT below. Let us know at least one gift you will be making for the upcoming holiday season! One winner will be chosen at random on November 1, 2012. Thanks to all who participate!

I love that hat that was shown..I would love to win this book..I am making table runners and breadcloths (the name thingy) and doilies for Christmas gifts. A baby booty or two may not be out of the question. Oh yeah..and a tree. All for the Christmas season. Blessings..anyone else having trouble with the word verification?
I've been eyeing this book and have it on my wishlist. I don't have any definite plans yet, but I'll probably be making some hats and/or scarves for the holidays. (so this book would be perfect!)
What an adorable book. Thanks for reviewing and including the link to ravelry. I'm in love with the heart garland! So cute.
I'm making a gift for my husband this year. It's functional but will be fashionable, too. It's a closet pocket organizer. He has a ton of hats, mittens and scarves (he loves winter sports). So I'm going to make a pocket organizer that will button around a hanger and hang in the closet.
what a cute book ...i love it
Well it appears that I need to make every cowl pattern on this book since I can't decide which one is the best. So it's very likely all the girls in my family will receiving cowls or scarves for Christmas!
This looks like a great book! Who can have enough accessories? :o)
I would love to win the book. I'll be making crochet bags this festive season.
Oh man, I need to make like a million Triangle Fringe Scarves for Christmas gifts!!
And I definitely know a few people (maybe including me) that would looove the Laptop Sleeve!
I would love this book too! I am crocheting beaded bracelets.
Cute book! I will be making a lot of slouchy hats for my boys...not sure where all the hats go.
Thanks.

I am making a hat for my gran. With the cold weather she needs to wrap up warm. Also making a themed hat for my son :-)
I'm such a newbie that I'm just making scarves, but I can't wait until I'm confident enough to try out a few of these!
I tend to make scarves to give as gifts. I will likely be making a baby blanket too :)
Thank you for the chance.
I will be making scarves and cowls galore this season. I would love this book!
