Loop-D-Loop Crochet: More Than 25 Novel Designs for Crocheters (and Kntters Taking Up the Hook)

Teva Durham presents more than 25 designs that are as up-to-the-minute, style-wise, as they are throughly steeped in crochet stitchwork tradition. Each of the projects, which range from purses, skirts, shawls, and sweaters for the whole family to a hammock and a pair of boots, epitomizes Durham's signature design sensibility, which she describes as a "tension of opposites - rough-hewn yet delicate, stark yet feminine, organic yet structured." Beginner and advanced crocheters will find Durham's novel approach refreshing and inspiring. And for newcomers just making the switch from knitting, Loop-d-Loop Crochet provides the perfect introduction to what Durham terms the "flip side" of needlecraft's heritage.
