Two hot topics in one book—crochet and jewelry! Here’s something special for crocheters who want to go beyond hats and afghans and for jewelry makers looking for new and adventurous ways to create jewelry. The 40 projects come from the finest contemporary crochet artists, and range from sleekly modern to whimsical, starched to felted, and boldly modern to daintily elegant. Create chunky rope bracelets out of large cord or a beaded tapesty pattern in a geometric cuff. Make a formidable design statement with a head-turning choker featuring a dragon and floral motifs. All the items use familiar stitches, as well as unusual techniques such as tapestry, Irish, and bead crochet, and some incorporate chains, pendants, and earwires for a finishing touch.

This review is from: Jewelry with a Hook: Crocheted Fiber Necklaces, Bracelets & More (Hardcover)
I was expecting so much from this book and I have to say I got a little bit dissapointed.It has a lot of projects, but must of them are made with thick yarn. and sometimes you cant actually apreciate the whole thing in the picture. So I would have wanted to see the final proyect on diferent kind of yarns and treads, at least one thick and one thin. Although it has very good ideas I would have wanted to see a small preview of all the projects in it. Must of them are pieces of jewelry for people under 30 (great for teenagers) A lot of the proyect are not weareable at all.

Jewlery,
This review is from: Jewelry with a Hook: Crocheted Fiber Necklaces, Bracelets & More (Hardcover)
the book was exactly what I was looking for. I do not like using wire in crochet as I always seem to scratch myself with wire ends. This is great - I have made my own version of the necklace on the cover. Thanks
