24-Hour Crochet Projects
Author: Rita Weiss
All you need is a little yarn, a crochet hook, and 24 hours to create these fashionable projects, from a chic top to a must-have purse. Once you start, you'll want to crochet every beautiful design--and you can in little time. Make them for yourself and everyone on your gift list.
If you're new to the craft, or haven't tried it in a while, take a look at the "Refresher Course" that illustrates the stitches you'll use and that describes gauge, probably the most important aspect of crocheting. Then you'll be ready togo.
What could be more fun than wearing the bright and cheerful "All Stripes" scarf, especially when the weather turns cold? Crocheting it! Easy to make, this scarf is worked with single crochet stitches and seven different colors.
What baby wouldn't look adorable in the "Absolutely Precious" sweater and hat set? Button bows provide the perfect finishing touch to a perfect outfit.
Make the "Around the Block Afghan" as big or small as you please. Start in the center and keep crocheting around and around until you run out of time or yarn.
Twentry-three patterns in all.
