Mix and Match Modern Crochet Blankets - Esme Crick

Esme Crick’s Mix and Match Modern Crochet Blankets is a paperback crochet book centred on a fresh modular approach to striped blanket design. Rather than focusing on granny squares, this David & Charles title explores individual crochet strips, allowing pattern, colour and texture to be combined in different ways for a more modern finish.

With 100 crochet strip patterns included, the book offers broad creative scope for making distinctive throws and other homewares. Each strip is presented in US crochet terms with both a written pattern and chart for a standard throw-width strip measuring 40in/100cm across, alongside advice on adjusting the width for smaller or larger blankets. Chapters cover Classic Stitches, Tapestry Crochet, Mosaic Crochet and Texture, and the book also includes 5 example blankets plus further ideas for scarves, bags and homewares.
