Craft Gossip

Crochet Techniques by Renate Kirkpatrick has a great cover – colorful and appealing.  The attraction doesn’t end there – but was not exactly what I expected from the title.  There are several sampler projects in the book, each with well defined stitches accompanied by clear explanations and schematics.  The first project is all in white – not appealing to me buy maybe to others.  The more colorful projects like the Hexagon Sampler Rug is a beauty.  While the colors would not be the ones I would chose, it’s a beautiful project and would be an opportunity to learn new stitches and a useful assembly technique.

If you’re a fan of samplers, there are several more in this book.  It’s work a look-see.
