pattern so you can crochet these wonderful Afghans. This pattern
booklet is printed in black & white. Pictures of the six
afghans are shown in color on the back cover.
This beautiful new book of functional, stylish designs for little
girls contains over 20 unique knitting patterns for sweaters,
cardigans, dresses and tops, skirts and snoods and charming
accessories. Combining true comfort with contemporary design, in a
world where time is precious and clothes are often mass-produced,
Danish knitwear designer Vibe Ulrik Sondergaard has produced a
delightful range of garments that are definitely worth investing
time into. Many of the designs focus on texture and shape in solid
colours, and all aim to be functional for active children. They are
feminine but not too childish in look and feel. Beautiful stitches,
quirky details, classic shapes and lush yarns are combined to
inspire others to create their own 'Labour of Love'. Word count:

What do you get if you combine amigurumi-the Japanese art of crocheting
small stuffed toys-with Pokémon? Only a second volume of the best
crochet book ever!
Pokémon Crochet Vol 2 provides detailed step-by-step instructions so
you can create 20 different Pokémon. It's a varied selection, with
plenty of interesting colors and shapes to ensure hours of crocheting
fun. The Pokémon will be instantly recognizable to fans of the
phenomenally popular Japanese game and TV series. In all their colorful
and wonderful shapes, these amigurumi are as true to the craft of
crochet as they are to the Pokémon universe.
All Pokémon trainers need to train-themselves and their Pokémon. The
same is true with crochet. To help in your training, the book starts
with a how-to guide to understanding crochet patterns, then explains
and demonstrates the various stitches needed to make the Pokémon. Then
it addresses the special techniques you'll need to master, which tools
and materials you'll need, and then how to put everything together to
make a perfect Pokémon plushie.
The projects are split into three skill levels: Beginners, then Easy,
and finally Intermediate patterns that are a little trickier. But
whichever level you work on, the results are stunning. Pokémon included:
Snom - Munchlax - Clefairy - Chansey - Scorbunny - Glaceon - Growlithe
- Mew - Espeon - Umbreon - Mimikyu - Sylveon - Leafeon - Chimchar -

both passions to perfection in this book that combines instruction with
invention.
