Simple Crochet - Softcover

Erika Knight brings the traditional art of crochet bang up to date, making it a more contemporary and glamorous pastime, rather than something that only grandmothers do. Here she introduces 20 exciting crochet projects, with clear photographs and step-by-step instructions, including cushions, throws, a shopping bag and slippers.
