When looking at the cover of this book it really made me want to dive right inside and see what other brightly colored patterns there were, and once I did open the book my eyes lit up.


The beginning of the book starts out with basic crochet stitches and illustrations making your crochet experience nice and easy. You then go further in the book and find how to read patterns and charts along with plenty of crochet designs for your home. Some of the patterns you will find are pillows, lamp shades, an ottoman slipcover, tablecloth trim, garland and more. As the book states you can add "a new twist on a crochet classic for your home."


There are free crochet patterns for every room of the house using the granny square motif starting with the living room to the kitchen, dining room, bedroom, bathroom and even laundry room. You're probably thinking what kind of pattern can be made for the laundry room? How about coat hangers? I promise you'll just love everything you see in this book. Each and every pattern comes with a full color photo along with materials, hook size, measurements and instructions. Follow the charts provided and you will end up with 25 brilliant projects for an updated home with all your new decor.
