Crochet Fashion Pattern Book

feature retro crochet craft book

Have fun with the new Retro Crochet book, when you learn how to make colorful vintage inspired fashion from the ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s.

Crochet has made a comeback and I think this is fantastic. 

I still have a delightful granny square throw blanket that I have been using since the 1970’s. 

Crocheting is relaxing and enjoyable, so picking up a crochet hook and yarn is a fun and beneficial hobby.

Of course, it is also great to wear, use and gift the wonderful fashions you make.

The author of this book is clearly talented with a good eye for fashion. 

Each of the patterns is described in detail with easy to follow step by step instructions. 

You can make clothing and accessories to use as a single stand-out piece or you can crochet a complete outfit. 

The bags were the first thing to catch my eye, but now I really think I want a vibrant multi-colored skirt. 

What would you like to crochet first?
