Getting Started: Crochet
By Judith L. Swartz
|
Neophyte crafters learn how to wield a crochet hook with skill and grace,
enter yarn stores with confidence, and recreate their favorite crochet trends
in this invaluable guide. Seemingly complex crocheting jargon and techniques
are demystified with step-by-step photographs and instructions. Clear diagrams
demonstrate how to hold a crochet hook and yarn, and form basic stitches to
create a simple scarf. More advanced skills, such as shaping, working in rounds,
motifs, and edging, lead into sophisticated projects, including an evening bag,
a pillow, and an edged camisole. Designed for the extreme beginner, the manual
also contains an index, a list of additional resources, and helpful charts.
