Doublestich
“Unleash your inner crochet fashionista with this collection of stylish and sexy patterns. Chicago-based crochet designers and twins Erika and Monika Simmons bring a modern edge to the craft with twenty-three fashion-forward projects using innovative yet deceptively simple construction, form-fitting designs, playful color combinations, and unique detaining. Projects are divided into two main sections: OUT AND ABOUT features daytime crochet wear perfect for layering over T-shirts or wearing with jeans, taking crafters from their downtown coffeehouse to the beach with ease. Projects include a webbed halter dress, hooded poncho with watching leg warmers, a remix T-shirt using a finished shirt with added crocheted sleeves, a tube-stole apron top, and more. PAINT THE TOWN highlights evening looks with fun detailing, open weave crochet, and glamorous accessories. Projects include a gothic shawl, feather choker with matching cocktail bag, a sassy salsa belt, peek-a-boo full-length dress, slinky tailored shrug, corset with satin ribbon tie, shrunken jacket, plus much more. Whether you live in a big city or just want to look like you do, the young designers behind Double Stitch show how easy it is to make crochet fashionably modern, flirtatious, and fun.” Double Stitch by Erika and Monika Simmons; this book can be purchased at Baabaara’s Wild and Wooly for $21.95.
