Crochet Squares - by Maria Gullberg (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

30 magical crochet square designs for clothes, accessories, and the home.

A square is a small, repeatable crochet project that is versatile and easy to take with you wherever you go. You can use them individually or you can join endless amounts of squares together to build up patterns that can give you everything from mug coasters to duvet covers.

In this book, Maria Gullberg has designed different types of squares including classic and easy granny squares, new and interesting designs of squares and hexagons, as well as mosaic crochet squares. They can be used for all kinds of projects, from jumpers, shawls, and waistcoats to rugs, cushion covers, and bags: the possibilities really are endless.

Each square can be joined together in as many ways as you can think of. There are pattern examples with clear instructions if you're looking for inspiration or specific designs, or you can make it up as you go along mixing patterns and choosing your own colorways.

In this book you'll discover squares to crochet that you'll never have seen before. With projects suitable for all abilities, from beginner through to intermediate and advanced, there's plenty to ignite your imagination.
