Crochet Collage Garden : 100 Patterns for Crochet Flowers, Plants and Petals
by Chris Norrington
"A collection of 100 crochet motifs arranged in 10 crochet collages based on the flowers and plants found in author, crochet designer and gardener, Chris Norrington's, stunning cottage garden. Each of the collages will have a different, sometimes seasonal, theme and the compositions of the collages change--sometimes the plants will be in a vase or a jug, sometimes presented as a wreath or growing straight from the ground. All of the crochet motifs have written crochet patterns so they are very accessible. You can enjoy making the same collages in the book or mix and match your favourite plants and flowers to create your own compositions. There is advice for what yarn and crochet hooks to use as well as suggestions for adapting the materials to make your own versions of the patterns"
