A Crocheter's Stash of Wit and Wisdom

Some learned to crochet at a grandmother's knee and now keep the faith. Others sought comfort in the craft during dark and troubling times. And still others found in crocheting a way of making something that perfectly expresses the artist inside. Yet others, of course, needed a vest. How people came to crocheting, what they've made of it, what memories it has added to their lives, and what moments of insight and simple pleasure it's brought them-these are the stories told in Hooked: A Crocheter's Stash of Wit and Wisdom. A tribute to the age-old art, Hooked is embellished with charming illustrations from vintage pattern booklets.
Among the contributors-with anecdotes ranging from the whimsical to the philosophical-are newcomers and those well known in crocheting circles from Lily Chin, Jennifer Hansen, Karen Searle, and Gwen Blakely Kinsler to Lela Nargi, Kay Dorn, Nilda Mesa, Deborah Robson, Annie Modesitt, and Linda Permann.

It’s old and worn out for a book from 1972. There is shelf aging mainly in its dust jacket. All the old school ins and outs of bottle cutting for home and hobbyists alike. Give this worn out guy a good home. It’s a crazy gem of a book!

Nice little book of crochet scarves (some could be used as shawls). Difficulty rating from the author provided for each pattern. Most are intermediate to experienced patterns. 
Inscription inside front cover.

Scarves are the perfect take-along crochet project. They’re small enough to stuff into a tote, there’s no fussing about fit, and they’re ideal for using up leftover yarn or splurging on a luxury skein. The 25 designs included here range from classic and elegant to fun and funky, with projects suitable for complete novices as well as veterans who are truly “hooked” on crochet. Basic how-tos are included for beginners, who might choose to start with a simple mesh pattern stole or the whimsical confetti-and-feather-look Eyelash Scarf. Experienced crocheters will love the colorful Paisley Wrap or the summer-weight Spoke-Motif Shawl. So steal a few minutes from your busy life and enjoy the pleasures of crocheting wherever you go.
