From the founders of The Modern Crafter, a resource for punch needle enthusiasts covering the basics and 15 projects of increasing difficulty.

Punch needle is accessible for everyone, including those with no craft experience. Readers will especially appreciate the fact that it's a perfect way to turn a stash of yarn into practical items.

This relaxing craft is presented with clear illustrations, photographs, and step-by-step instructions.
Readers will learn the techniques, which tools to combine with particular yarns, and where to source materials—including great ideas for upcycling materials.
The 15 one-of-a-kind projects include rugs, plant holders, purses and bags, children's toys, pillows, wall hangings, framed art, and more.

Sisters Rachel Lawson and Siobhan Watt combined their talents—Siobhan's professional art and design experience and Rachel's needlework expertise—to create these delightful contemporary designs.

Rachel Lawson and Siobhan Watt started The Modern Crafter to combine Siobhan's design experience and Rachel's needlework skills. The sisters' successful business creates modern, stylish craft projects that everyone can make. Rachel lives in Saffron Waldon, and Siobhan lives in London. www.themoderncrafter.co.uk
