Description

(Australian) Renate Kirkpatrick – Crochet techniques bring together instructions for stitches and their variations to create five colourful and attractive samplers ; two based on classic stitches, one on jacquard stitch, a fourth based on Tunisian crochet (also called tricot), and another based on crochenit (sometimes known as ‘on the double’ crochet). Working these patterns will help you gain a solid, well grounded knowledge of crochet. Many of the stitches are a breeze, but others require a little more concentration. As you make your way through the techniques you will discover a range of interesting and useful stitches that you’ll want to use over and over again ; not just as rugs, perhaps, but to create items of your own. You will also find discussion of common crochet problems and tips for solving them. 208 pages.
