The best thing about making things yourself is the ability to customise and personalise your makes to suit you and Modern Crochet Blankets allows you to do exactly that. With 100 crochet strip patterns to choose from, you have the freedom to play with colours, patterns and textures to create wonderfully unique striped blankets, exactly as you want them.
Esme gives each strip pattern in US crochet terms (single crochet in the US is double crochet in the UK), with both a written pattern and a chart for making a standard 100cm blanket strip. The book does include further advice for adjusting the width of the strips if you would like to make a smaller or larger blanket than the standard size. Plus, with chapters including Classic Stitches, Tapestry Crochet, Mosaic Crochet and Texture, this comprehensive collection offers almost infinite possibilities to create unique striped blankets that are just as fun to stitch up as they are when finished.
As well as the 100 strip patterns, there are 5 example blankets showing different combinations of strips, plus additional ideas for using the strips in other ways, such as scarves, bags and homewares.
