Colour Crochet Unlocked

Athena Owl Bag by irenestrange

Athena Owl Bag was inspired by vintage macrame owl designs. The feather-like shell stitch decorates the front of the bag, and crab stitch trim finishes the edges. Crochet your own strap or finish the look with a pre-made handbag strap!

The instructions are written in US crochet terms, with step-by-step photos and charts. There are two options for making the body of the bag. Option 1 has the decorative shells added separately after the body is complete – this will work well if the shells are in different colours. Option 2 works the shells at the same time as the body with short rows – this works well if making the bag in one colour.

Pokémon Crochet Vol 2: Bring even more Pokémon to life with 20 cute crochet patterns

Pokémon Crochet Vol 2 provides detailed step-by-step instructions so you can create 20 different Pokémon. It’s a varied selection, with plenty of interesting colors and shapes to ensure hours of crocheting fun. The Pokémon will be instantly recognizable to fans of the phenomenally popular Japanese game and TV series. In all their colorful and wonderful shapes, these amigurumi are as true to the craft of crochet as they are to the Pokémon universe. 

All Pokémon trainers need to train―themselves and their Pokémon. The same is true with crochet. To help in your training, the book starts with a how-to guide to understanding crochet patterns, then explains and demonstrates the various stitches needed to make the Pokémon. Then it addresses the special techniques you’ll need to master, which tools and materials you’ll need, and then how to put everything together to make a perfect Pokémon plushie. 

The projects are split into three skill levels: Beginners, then Easy, and finally Intermediate patterns that are a little trickier. But whichever level you work on, the results are stunning.

Author Lee Sartori has been a Pokémon fan since she was a child, and a crochet and amigurumi aficionado since she can remember. She combines both passions to perfection in this book that combines instruction with invention.
