[share_ebook] Crochet Embellishments (leisure Arts

These awesome afghans will inspire you to pick up your hook and start right away! Choose from 40 projects, including a one-piece throw, a mile-a-minute wrap, and join-as-you-go squares, each designed by a reader of Crochet With Heart magazine.

This softcover perfect-bound book presents 40 afghans to fit a host of decors and 9 other projects (stole and hat, tea cozy and place mat, rug and pillow, women's vest and jacket, and men's pullover). Pattern stitch multiples are given for each design so that crocheters can also use the patterns to develop their own projects.

Crochet one-of-a-kind bracelets, necklaces, earrings, and more using all-purpose thread and a small crochet hook. Layer upon layer, color upon color, create intricate designs reminiscent of the symmetry of mandalas and mosaics, or the infinite patterns of the kaleidoscope. Start with simple crochet stitches and then gradually overlay with long complex stitches and clusters of stitches to achieve a vibrant, textured fabric. Team up with beads for jewelry that's stunning.
