Samenvatting
New series! A portable, full–color reference for crocheters on the go
Crocheting rivals knitting in popularity, but this book has no rivals in its appeal to enthusiasts. It features clear, step–by–step instructions and color photos that demonstrate often confusing techniques. Compact enough to toss into a tote bag, this is the practical, visual go–to, go–with guide crocheters will rely on for help when and where they need it.
Cecily Keim (Los Angeles, CA) learned how to crochet at age nine and teaches crochet classes at Unwind, a yarn store in Los Angeles. Kim P. Werker (Vancouver, BC, Canada) is the editor of Interweave Crochet magazine and runs the online magazine Crochet Me (www.crochetme.com). Keim and Werker are the coauthors of Teach Yourself VISUALLY Crocheting (0–7645–9641–1).
