Crochet Techniques Kirkpatrick

There are more unique crochet stitches than anyone can count--which is what makes this remarkable book so valuable for crocheters. Each of its sampler rugs introduces the reader to a variety of new stitches. One consists of 36 squares, all in yarn of the same color, yet each with its own distinctive stitch. Another is a tasseled circle made with 19 multicolored hexagons. Still more projects are based on a jacquard stitch; Tunisian crochet (also called tricot); and rochenit (sometimes known as "on the double" crochet). Making any one of them is an education in the art of crochet. Plus, the result is a spectacularly beautiful rug.
