Synopsis

Designed as a skill-building collection, this guide covers popular crochet techniques from selecting hooks and choosing yarn to finishing methods, blocking, and joining granny squares. Instructions are written in US crochet terms, with a conversion ‘cheat sheet’ for readers who prefer UK terms.

Across its chapters, Leyzina shares solutions for both foundational and more advanced work, including approaches to the magic ring, invisible joins, and methods for smoothing edges and shaping circles when working in rows or rounds. Amigurumi is also included, with guidance on invisible increases and decreases, adding facial features, and tips for lining and stuffing toys, alongside sections on colour changes, stripes, cords, borders, tricky stitches, and finishing off. Suitable for crocheters looking for a compact, technique-focused reference to keep in a project bag.
