Starting with the key things you’ll need to get crocheting, from advice on yarn and notions to essential techniques, Sarah-Jayne then takes you through a gorgeous collection of stitches – from simple repeat patterns to incredible textured designs.
The stitches are divided into 4 sections – ‘basic stitches’, ‘simple stitch combinations, ‘textured stitches’ and ‘squares and shapes’ – so you can easily search for a stitch that suits your desired finish. Each stitch includes a clear overhead close-up photograph, stitch multiples/repeats, and written instructions in US terms with UK terminology also noted.
All stitches are categorized by difficulty level, from easy to advanced, so you can choose a stitch that suits your skills! As a bonus, you’ll also find Sarah-Jayne’s 5 favourite border stitches – all photographed and clearly explained, and three stunning projects that include a selection of stitches in the library: a basket weave tote bag; a gradient crochet wrap; and a colourful, multi-textured patchwork blanket.
