Crochet Adorned review


What a great book. It is full of cute project ideas.
I took some time today to work on the cluster trim shown.
The crochet thread is from the thrift store, and it just happened to exactly match some knit jersey in the stash. I'm in the process of beefing up my top shortage.

My MMMay photo for day three is here. My fourteen year old photographer has serious focus issues. I fired him last night. Although he hid it well - I could tell that he is just crushed.

I have never thought of using crochet for trim on garments. What a great idea!

This looks like a neat book. I crochet, but only really basic stuff. Do you think a novice could handle the patterns in the book?

Thanks for answering my question! I will put this book on my wishlist on amazon! Can't wait to see you try some of the projects.

Thanks so much for the kind review of my book. I love the pink color of your thread (and getting it at a thrift store--even better!)-- can't wait to see it finished.

I've really enjoyed your Me-Made-May entries and am happy to have found your blog. I'd love to try making crochet trim. I'll have to check out the book.
