All are beautiful!--<i><b>karenwhooley.com</b></i> <p/>"Clean designs ... the visual impact is kind to the eyes in its simplicity and yet attention-grabbing with bold color pops. It's the perfect combination whether you're making wearables or home decor items. ... If you love tapestry crochet, the purse patterns in this book are worth the investment; they're stunning!"--<i><b>Crochet Concupiscence</b></i><br><br><br>Tapestry crochet is a variation on traditional crochet that allows for color changes mid&#150row and results in a look that is akin to loom weaving. This concealed ring&#150bound book focuses on tapestry crochet but also offers several other types of projects, including granny squares and three&#150dimensional flowers. The look of tapestry crochet is very distinctive and is rarely represented in craft books published in the U.S. The instructional portion of this book outlines the eight types of stitches needed to complete the projects as well as tips for changing colors, finishing, turning chain, and reading charts and a section informing lefthanded crafters how they can adapt the patterns to fit their needs. Most of the tapestry crochet patterns are for bags and accessories, and the more traditional crochet patterns are focused on granny squares and decorative items such as flowers and chains. An additional tips section at the end of the book offers help related to technical aspects, including weaving in ends, counting stitches, stringing beads, selecting yarn and other material, and more. --<b><i>Anne Heidemann, Booklist</b></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Designer <b>Maria Gullberg</b> is a leading innovator of crochet in Sweden. The author shares her extensive knowledge and presents crochet techniques including tapestry crochet, ribbed crochet, crochet relief, and double-layer crochet, with many variations.<br>
