<p style="text-align: left;"><em>Crochet Adorned: Reinvent Your Wardrobe with Crocheted Accents, Embellishments, and Trims</em>, <em>by Linda Permann</em>...is a must-have resource guide for learning crochet techniques! Once you learn how to create basic stitches {the instructions are very clear and easy to understand}, you'll be adorning not only your clothing {there are examples of jackets, skirts, shirts}, but anything you can think of! I'm thinking...{<span style="font-size: 80%;">as I think you might be thinking</span>} ...pillowcases {<span>I'm planning a simple lace trim for me</span>}, towels, aprons {cute one in the book}, curtains, purses, pincushions ;) ...hmmm, what else?...endless possibilities! I especially love that this book is filled with instructions on how to make those little flower motifs on the cover. And if a classic crocheted blanket is what you want...you got it! There are plenty of stitch patterns included! ~ I know you'll enjoy this book as much as I do!</p>
