Bøger af Dora Ohrenstein

In Crochet Every Way Stitch Dictionary, designer Dora Ohrenstein does what no crochet author has done before: She offers detailed instructions for how to create 125 stitch patterns, plus she explains how to increase and decrease each stitch pattern in three different ways—without shaping, with shaping at the edges, and with internal shaping. This hefty collection, ranging from lace and filigree to shells and textured stitches, is loaded with beautifully photographed swatches of each pattern, plus charted and text instructions. A focus on the ins and outs of shaping makes working stitch patterns far more accessible and allows the creative crocheter to make many items without a pattern. Crochet Every Way Stitch Dictionary will become an invaluable go-to resource that's sure to inspire legions of crocheters to use stitch patterns in new and exciting ways.

Welcome to the new era of crochet. Making garments from the top down is a favourite knitting technique that allows knitters to test and adjust the fit as they go. Now, thanks to designer Dora Ohrenstein, crocheters will benefit for the first time from a pattern book featuring the same beloved approach.

Starting with how to choose yarns and ending with finishing techniques, this book covers the basics. Suitable for every fibre aficionado's library, it features over 70 stitch-along swatches that teach a particular crochet technique as well as five basic projects (hat, shawl, neck warmer, bag, and scarf) that put those techniques to use.
