Marc Notes: Make a connection!
If you love to crochet, what could be better than 101 new motifs to add to your repertoire? How about innovative, easy-to-follow techniques for joining them together? Best-selling crochet author Edie Eckman shares a dazzling new array of motif designs and then describes creative methods for arranging and connecting your pieces into whole fabrics. You'll be delighted by the possibilities. Review Quotes: Eckman's (Around the Corner Crochet Borders) specialty is crochet motifs--she has a knack for turning simple stitches with colorful yarn into something fresh and contemporary. Here, she introduces a new batch of crocheted motifs as well as a variety of creative methods for joining the motifs together. Full-color photographs of each motif are included, as are written and charted directions. As a bonus, there are 12 patterns that use the motifs and connection techniques covered in the book. This isn't for beginners--readers need to know how to crochet to get the most out of it--but Eckman may inspire some noncrocheters to learn, just so they can experiment with the techniques she describes. -VERDICT Eckman's eye for color and design make this an excellent addition to any crafter's crochet collection.
