Crochet enthusiasts and plant lovers, this project book by Amy Gaines is perfect for you! With 22 delightful projects that are easy to make and stylish to display or gift, this book offers a charming way to add some botanical beauty to your crafting.
Divided into two sections, the book features flower and succulent-themed projects. The flower chapter includes tutorials on creating ten different flowers like roses, daisies, and ranunculus, along with four types of leaves. Once you’ve mastered these basics, you can try your hand at creating an array of flower-based projects. The succulent chapter offers a broad range of plant and cactus projects that you’ll adore.
Whether you’re looking for practical items like cactus coasters, dish scrubbers, pencil holders, or a table runner, or you want to create decorative items like potted plants, garlands, wreaths, dreamcatchers, and wall art, this book has something for everyone. You can also make personal accessories like floral hair clips, headbands, and different purse designs that you can carry with pride.
Each project comes with detailed stitch instructions, a shopping list, the finished size, and the skill level, so you can start crocheting with ease. You’ll also find general crochet instructions, stitch diagrams, and yarn information that will help you bring your creations to life.
