Enter Brett Bara, former editor of Crochet Today, to the rescue, bringing us 25 delightful, practical pieces that make perfect gifts-though you may be tempted to keep them all to yourself!
  The ideal curator, Brett has expertise that shines through in a first-rate lineup of projects. Whether you are a beginner or experienced crocheter, there is something for everyone: hats and caps, including a cloche, porkpie hat, and tam; scarves, shawls, and cowls, from chunky to drapey to snug; eye-catching mittens and arm warmers; delicate lace socks and cozy man-slippers; flirty bags; and sparkly jewelry. Each piece is designed with standout details so that even the simplest pattern has that wow factor by showcasing lust-worthy yarn, an unexpected technique, or a fun embellishment.
