Designs for the Crochet Fashionista
by Erika & Monika Simmons
|
The simple techniques shown in this guide together with the flirty, sassy designs
will have even beginners crocheting in no time. Projects are divided into two collections,
with "Out and About" featuring casual daytime fashions to layer over T-shirts or wear
with jeans, a look that migrates from a downtown coffeehouse to the beach with ease.
From the webbed halter dress and hooded poncho to the remix T-shirt with crocheted
sleeves, all these pieces radiate an irresistible bohemian charm. The evening collection,
Paint the Town, emphasizes unusual detailing, open-weave crochet, and playful
colors in designs for a feather choker and matching cocktail bag, a gothic shawl,
a glamorous full-length peek-a-boo dress, a slinky tailored shrug, and a corset
with satin ribbon ties.
