Create bold, modern and fun tapestry crochet designs with this
unique crochet stitch dictionary! One of the most important tools
in any crocheter's toolbox is a stitch dictionary - an essential
reference packed with possibilities. The Hooktionary is the first
and only crochet stitch dictionary to feature tapestry crochet
motifs. And it has personality to boot! From unicorns and
bumblebees to bold, graphic designs, the 150 motifs this book
includes are perfect for the modern maker. Plus, five 'choose your
own adventure' projects allow you to mix and match motifs into
one-of-a-kind designs that reflect your own tastes. Inspired by
Andrea Rangel's Alterknit Stitch Dictionary, Brenda K.B. Anderson
has created a crochet counterpart so that crocheters can join in
the fun too. Unlike other tapestry crochet pattern collections,
which focus on single crochet stitches - creating slanted color
patterns which do not create clean lines - Anderson has used her
experience of which kinds of crochet stitches pair well with
tapestry crochet to create beautiful, clear patterns, and wearable
fabrics. Swatches are made in one of five different crochet stitch
patterns: single crochet through the back loop, center (or split)
single crochet, extended single crochet, center (or split) extended
single crochet, and front post double crochet, with information
about how the crochet stitch anatomy affects both the drape and
feel of the fabric and also the look of the charted image, so that
you can imagine how a chart would look in another stitch pattern.
All the designs are crocheted in the round, so that you can keep
the front of the work facing you, and for those projects that need
an opening, a steek is made - a technique that has not been covered
in any other crochet book! There is also comprehensive advice on
choosing stitches and fixing mistakes.
