Book Overview

The loopy, lacy, textured patterns of crochet are taking the fashion runways by storm. And millions of crocheters have their hooks poised, waiting for trendy new patterns for handhooked, high-fashion accessories. Noted crochet designer and author Candi Jensen is transforming the look of crochet with two great new books. "Crochet Bags " includes 15 projects ranging from a swinging cotton bag in hot summer colors to an elegant evening purse adorned with feathers. Specialty techniques include working with suede yarn, integrating beads into crochet, creating a fan-shaped purse, making a string market bag, and even crocheting with recycled plastic shopping bags to create a colorful and waterproof beach bag. Packaged in Storey's best-selling die-cut series, with the signature at-a-glance, chart-format instructions, "Crochet Bags " will be irresistible to all the fashion-conscious crocheters who want to show off the new range of styles and looks that are achievable with a hook, a ball of yarn--and Candi Jensen's great patterns.

Great little book

By Thriftbooks.com User, January 3, 2010

I originally checked this book out at the library and loved it so much I bought it!! Super easy to read and learn to crochet with. Pictures are excellent for detailing each kind of stitch. Book lays open to keep your hands free. Lots of scarves to choose from to crochet. Great if you want to teach yourself!

Awesome!

By Thriftbooks.com User, November 18, 2006

When I saw this book at Jo-Ann's I had to have it, I used my 50% off coupon and bought it right away. This book has 16 different patterns for scarves, and I can honestly say that I will probably make them all. They are very original patterns. I like that this book incorporates lots of novelty yarns. There is also a pattern that uses the bloom loom, and one that uses the hairpin lace technique...very original. I also like...

16 great projects, lots of fun designs and techniques!

By Thriftbooks.com User, November 3, 2005

Oh, this book is just pure fun! If you doubt me, turn to page 63 where you'll find the fabulous "Flapper Flashback" scarf, a roaring '20s-inspired crocheted dazzler made from worsted-weight ribbon and novelty yarns. Or try the "Classic Hairpin Lace" scarf of peach-colored worsted-weight ribbon yarn, or the "Easy Argyle" with preppy diamond motifs. Altogether you'll find 16 patterns for hip crocheted scarves in colors and styles...
