Inspired by the classic Rider-Waite tarot deck, Yarn Tarot is for anyone who appreciates wool- and yarn-related crafts. Each suit has been translated into a different fiber craft: swords become knitting needles, wands become crochet hooks, pentacles become hand-weaving looms, and cups become drop spindles. With characters of various races, genders, body types, and ages, Yarn Tarot reflects the inclusive morals of the fiber arts community.

Mosaic crochet is a cutting-edge technique that allows you to work two-colour patterns without having to change yarns in one row. You simply skip stitches in one row and connect them by filling in with the alternate colour two rows later. This produces incredible modern geometric patterns that look amazing as throws, blankets, afghans, pillows, rugs, bags and other accessories – using a much easier method than other crochet colourwork techniques. One crochet hook and two balls of yarn are all you need to get started.
While it might look complex, mosaic crochet is actually incredibly straightforward once you learn the basic techniques. If you can work a chain, a double crochet (US single crochet) and a treble crochet (US double crochet), then you can mosaic crochet (…and if you can’t, don’t worry, all the stitches you need are covered in the book). And what’s even better is that there are minimal ends to sew in because it works on a two-row method with the yarn carried up the side of the work.
