Crochet Garden: Bunches of Flowers, Leaves, and Other Delights

Building on the success of her first book, Suzann Thompson follows up with a collection of botanical, inspired, international, and fanciful garden creations. After a short basics section (much like that in the first book), Suzann offers projects in four distinct sections: Botanical Gardens (tree leaves; woodland flowers like violets, bluebells, and orchids; butterflies, acorns, and pinecones), Inspired Gardens (textile and decorative-art inspired blossoms), International Gardens (Tudor Rose, forget-me-not, edelweiss, gentian, fleur-de-lys), and Fun and Fantastic Gardens (silver bells, cockle shells, and some fanciful creatures), all made quickly with highly accessible yarn. A dozen projects show readers how the motifs can be used to decorate store-bought garments, fashion accessories, and home décor items.
