by KristinOmdahl (Author)

Synopsis

Kristin Omdahl takes a fresh approach to technique and construction in Wrapped in Crochet. Several of the stitch patterns are exclusive to Kristin and to this book. There are techniques for every skill level and projects to fit every budget and time commitment. Charts are included for every stitch pattern and every motif and each pattern will include diagrams for all constructions.

With Wrapped in Crochet, you'll create stunning crocheted scarves, wraps, and shawls using clever stitch motifs, innovative and traditional shaping, and a variety of crochet techniques and embellishment ideas. Targeted at beginning to intermediate crocheters, these one-of-a-kind pieces invite you to take your crochet to the next level. Project details include unusual edgings and motifs, color work, crocheting with beads, lace, ruffles, and tiers, and more.

Because sizing is usually not an issue with a scarf or a wrap, the projects featured here make the perfect gift. With designs full of variety from skill level to the time spent crocheting, there is sure to be something to get your hooks flying! Let these unique designs for scarves, shawls (circular, square, rectangle, and oval), capes, and card-wraps inspire you. Pick up your crochet hooks and wrap yourself in crochet today.
