      As part of a series, love… Crochet contains a collection of 25 wonderful projects – all of which are really easy to create. From the narrow stripe beret and the mock pleat shoulder bag to the outdoors cushion and white star throw, each project uses the latest yarns, designed with the style-conscious in mind. There are also shorter projects so if you’re pressed for time, you can simply make a few pretty crochet cupcakes or jam jar covers – perfect for adding a personal touch to your home or for giving as gifts. The book uses star ratings – from beginner to advanced – so the difficulty of each project and skill-level needed can be judged at a glance.

      As the current economic climate forces everyone to tighten their belts, the versatility of crochet has really come into its own. Using little more than some yarn and a crochet hook you can make glamorous one-off fashion garments and pretty accessories for your home – meaning saving money is no excuse for looking shabby.

      All the patterns give clear and concise instructions while close-up photos show stitch details, making crochet accessible, even for a beginner.

      Carol Meldrum has worked for Rowan & Jaeger hand knits both as a design consultant and freelance designer. Carol is the author of the bestselling Knitted Icons and also runs numerous knitting and crochet workshops throughout the UK. She has her own website at www.beatknit.com.
