Patterns are based around the classic granny square, but with a modern twist. They won’t take long to make and are quick and easy to complete once you know the basics of crochet. Each project has detailed colour photography and there are clear, concise instructions to follow. From gorgeous blankets to colourful cushions, to stylish scarves, shrugs and mittens, this book is packed with inspiring projects that are guaranteed to get you reaching for your crochet hook, and they’ll make charming gifts too.
