Colorful Crochet

A true inspiration for both beginner and advanced crocheters, this book encourages crafters to play with color, yarn, patterns, and stitches to create one of a kind crochet projects. Included are a mix of both familiar and new stitches and patterns with clear project descriptions and crochet charts to guide the reader in creating garments, blankets, baskets, rugs, bags, and cushions. Most projects are crocheted using the many pretty colors in the DMC Natura natural fiber range ("XL," "Medium" and "Just Cotton")--a wonderfully soft eco-friendly produced yarn, suitable for even the most delicate baby skin, and still machine washable. Others are made from DMC's superwash merino "Woolly," which is 100% wool, lovely soft, and also machine washable.
