#09: AVRIL’s Playing with Yarn NO. 1

Books, Craft books, Shop February 16th, 2008

BOOK SOLD!

This is a brand new craft book which I bought in Japan, you’ll be getting a new copy in a sealed plastic bag (I scanned my own copy). I thought that this was a funny book because it teaches you how to knit and crochet with your fingers instead of the regular needles! There are instructions with photos so you can follow even if you don’t read Japanese. Also included are patterns for making scarves, bags and camisoles with your fingers!

The Happy Hooker (Stitch ‘n Bitch Crochet) (ENG)

Following the success of Stitch ‘N Bitch: The Knitter’s Handbook comes The Happy Hooker (Stich ‘n Bitch Crochet). I guess since the first book was so well-received, they’ve got more budget for this one and it now comes with more full-color pages than previously. I have to agree absolutely that knitters can crochet too, and vice versa because I’m a crochet-er who knits! (I’ll be venturing into knitting cables soon!!)

For those interested in learning how to make amigurumis (Japanese term for crochet stuffies), you can also pick it up by reading this book. Although the English and Japanese patterns are quite different but at least you’ll get the basics.
