Granny Square Crochet: Quilt Blocks: 36 Crocheted Blocks Based on Traditional Quilting Designs and 10 Beautiful Projects - Paperback

by Laura Strutt (Author)

Crochet CLASSIC QUILT BLOCKS such as the Half Square Triangle, Eight-Point Star and Log Cabin.

Suitable for COMPLETE BEGINNERS through to EXPERIENCED CROCHETERS.

As well as being on-trend, traditional quilt-style crochet blocks are satisfying to make and only require a few basic stitches.

Find out how to make 36 blocks, from basic one-square patterns and seamed blocks with four, nine, and sixteen squares to colorwork patterns. Some blocks have two styles to choose from--one made in the granny-square technique and another which gives a "solid" effect without spaces.

The projects section features 10 inspiring designs to make using the blocks, including a Trio of Pillows, a Flying Geese Scarf, a Patchwork Kimono Cardigan, an Orange Peel Bag, and a stunning Sampler Blanket.

Also included is advice on how to personalize the projects using your own choice of blocks and different weights of yarn, plus a techniques section with all the stitches and finishing skills you'll need.
