Fun to roll and race, the vehicles are about 13″ long and 7″ high (including wheels). Make way for speeding crochet! Create a variety of vehicles, including a police car, taxicab, convertible, and school bus. Use readily available craft materials to attach wheels that actually turn.

Customize Your Crochet: Adjust to fit; embellish to taste – by Margaret Hubert

I’ve taken classes from Margaret Hubert, and I own several of her books. She never fails to impress! Margaret is a wealth of knowledge. Whether you are new to crochet, or have had a hook in your hand for decades, Margaret always has something new to teach you!

Designers have to create crochet patterns in standard sizes, but very few people’s bodies actually match up to those “average” measurements. Customize Your Crochet teaches crocheters how to adjust standard size patterns to fit their unique measurements.

The techniques and processes taught in this book are the same ones that designer Margaret Hubert has used for years to teach classes on custom fitting. With this book, individual crocheters can learn to adjust patterns to fit themselves and the others for whom they crochet.

So, grab some patterns you want to customize and click the affiliate link below for your country to get started!
