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!
