Review
Look out for this informative and comprehensive book, Crochet Techniques. It is a valuable reference for any lover of crochet with a wide selection of stitch patterns and techniques. There are 36 linear stitch patterns and 19 in-the-round motifs that can be used for many different projects and ideas. The book presents them as morsels that can then be combined to create rugs and throws as a decorative reference that can inspire you again and again. The book then progresses to colour work where 30 squares are charted as colourful patterns that can all be extended and worked in any shade you like. Carrying on further than many other crochet books, Renate then shoes how to work another 36 patterns in Tunisian crochet and 30 ways with crochenit, a derivative of Tunisian crochet. As well as being an extensive collection of patterns for an avid crocheter, the book is also an excellent primer for anyone who is new to crochet. The basics of the techniques are thoroughly and clearly explained in down to earth language and excellent diagrams and is an excellent source. --Knit Today, July 08
