Synopsis

Crochet accessories are as easy as 1, 2, or 3 skeins of yarn!

In Quick Crocheted Accessories, author Sharon Zientara has curated a collection of crocheted projects that make use of one, two, or three skeins of yarn, allowing for both color play and larger projects. Crocheters will enjoy quick crochet projects including scarves and shawls, hats, fingerless mitts and mittens, and slippers and socks!

They'll discover single-skein projects that are simple and quick to crochet, budget-friendly, or offer a beautiful way to use a special skein of luxury yarn as well as crochet projects that take two or three skeins offering larger or more complex stitch patterns and colorwork.

Featured designers include Kathy Merrick, Brenda K. B. Anderson, Beth Nielsen, Cristina Mershon, Terri Keller, Jessica Bolof, and Linda Skuja. Their designs include stitch patterns and motifs that are textural, reversible, and fresh.

Review:

"The pattern instructions are clear with helpful stitch diagrams and a handy glossary with basic stitch directions.” --Petals to Picots

"Crochet patterns designated as 'quick' often use bulky yarn or contain simple shapes or stitch patterns. That isn't the case in Zientara's (It Girl Crochet) latest, which features sophisticated accessories crocheted in a number of yarns..... VERDICT This assortment of quick, stylish crochet projects will appeal to first-time and intermediate crocheters. --Library Journal

"Sharon, also the author of It Girl Crochet which I reviewed, has assembled a stellar group of crochet fashionistas who have designed accessories that are not only quick but they also underscore the praises of clever crochet!" --Crochet Queen

"...this book is an excellent choice if you are looking for a special gift to bless your favorite crocheter!" --Bonnie Bay Crochet
