The Colour book of Crochet by Mary Stalling

Now, when more and more people are discovering the full potential of the craft of crochet, this book provides a complete introduction as well as a variety of designs to make.

The word crochet is derived from the French crochet meaning hook. Traditionally consisting of lacy patterns, crochet was once used mainly to make decorative mats and edgings.

Recently, however, modern designs and colours have widened the scope of the craft. Crochet is basically simple, despite the intricate appearance of the work. This book contains easy-to-follow, illustrated instructions and diagrams for the stitches. These show both the right-handed and the left-handed person how to do the basic chain stitch and its variations. Once these are mastered, the craft is immensely satisfying as the work grows so quickly. The designs in this book include both traditional and modern patterns. According to the yarn and the stitch used, there are cobwebby lace patterns and bolder modern designs. There are articles to make for the home and as gifts, as well as fashion designs and things to make for children.

I prefer using recycled packaging materials as far as possible.
