Book Description

May 5, 2009

Needlework dynamo Vickie Howell is back with a high-spirited, playful collection of goodies to crochet. Vickie Howell’s Pop Goes Crochet! pays creative tribute to popular culture past and present with 40 projects inspired by celebrities in fashion, music, film, and television. Howell has whipped up a spectacular array of hip clothing, jewelry, and accessories, ranging from an intriguing “Yohji” asymmetrical sweater (in homage to designer Yohji Yamamoto) to a funky striped “Cameron” hoodie with the laid-back California style of actress Cameron Diaz. Everything’s fashionable and as fun to make as it is to wear.

5.0 out of 5 stars Vickie rocks and so does this book!, August 23, 2009
This review is from: Vickie Howell's Pop Goes Crochet!: 36 Projects Inspired by Icons of Popular Culture (Paperback)
Vickie Howell is one of the shining stars of the craft world, both on the indie scene as well as the industry. She has her crochet hook and knitting needles on the pulse of pop culture, innovative design, and straight up classic fashion. She combines all of these into one heck of a page turner. This book is not only for crafters, it is for anyone who is into movies, film, and music. The projects are clever, easy to tackle and loaded with personality! Not to mention the pictures are a blast - great coffee table material here! Way to go, Vic!
