Having a hard time finding a good crochet book to download directly to your computer? Want one that is easier to take along with you in the reader you already carry?
Here you are!
Dame Tyler has compiled her personally developed, Easy to Expert crochet patterns into this easy to follow set of instructions. Numerous as-you-go pictures show techniques step by step for several three dimensional flower granny squares, the bouillon stitch, double ended hook & circular crochet techniques.
You'll find simple patterns for chemo caps and wrist warmers, lap blankets, cell phone/video game cases and a touching story of how Crochet is a Universal Language.
If you are a yarn addict, you must read the 12 Step Program for Yarn Addicts! Learn how to run your own Granny Square Exchange.
Most crochet artists want to see the projects before they buy a book. That simply isn't possible online, as the pictures are most often on the back cover. Thus, she has included a page of pictures in the preview so you can see many items in their finished state or a swatch of the pattern.
A mix of advice, humor and personal story, Dame Tyler's Crochet Garden is the beginning of an odyssey of stitchery. |

Product Description:
When it comes time to put the finishing touches on the edges of a fiber project, a crochet border is the perfect solution. Edgings are essential adornments to the most popular knit and crochet pieces blankets, scarves, and afghans. But borders can do so much more; they give handmade goods a delightful finishing touch, serve as focal points, tidy uneven edges, and add handcrafted flair to store-bought apparel. Borders often require turning a corner shaping the edgings around a 90-degree angle without breaking the pattern. This is rarely simple; add too few stitches at a corner and the work rounds inward; too many stitches, and the piece begins to ruffle awkwardly. Unfortunately, most published edging patterns fail to include specific instructions for turning the corner, leaving crafters to fend for themselves. Edie Eckman comes to the rescue in Around-the-Corner Crochet Borders, a collection of 150 colorful crochet frames, each with detailed instructions for working around a corner. Instructions are offered both as text and as charts for working in-the-round; back-and-forth charts are also included for when that method is more appropriate. Photographs of finished borders, each turning a 90-degree corner, allow readers to see the details up close. Borders range from the delicate to the flamboyant and are sure to appeal to a new generation of trend-setting crafters. Offering practical solutions to one of needlecrafts most vexing challenges, Around-the-Corner Crochet Borders is an essential addition to every crocheters reference library. With this book, marvelous crochet borders are just around the corner. |

Granny squares are to crochet what pieced squares are to quilting. They originated with pioneer women using up precious scraps of yarn to make blankets for their families, and over the years, many recognized, named patterns have been handed down from one generation to the next. Beyond this treasury of 75 different granny square motifs, Margaret Hubert shows the evolution of the granny square, how it can be used and interpreted in different ways with different yarns, and how today's crocheter can design her own projects using the granny squares of her choice with the yarn choices of today. Just as Margaret learned from her grandmother and mother and then passed the skill down to her daughter and granddaughter, each generation finds new uses and artistic ways to interpret granny squares. |
