Crochet at Work contains 20 fun, customisable dolls to crochet – you can choose the body shape, skin and hair colour, hair style, and outfit. Each doll has been dressed in clothing that reflects an aspirational career, so they’re perfect for adults wanting to crochet for little ones who say, ‘When I grow up, I want to be a…’. But of course, once you’ve learnt the basic principles and techniques involved in crocheting the dolls, you can create any outfit you like.
Accessories are also included, such as an oxygen tank for the diver. With comprehensive tools, materials and techniques sections, illustrated with helpful photographs and illustrations, beginners will be able to enjoy the projects as much as experienced crocheters. Projects include: chef, doctor, vet, explorer, astronaut, soldier, teacher and firefighter.
A choice of multiple body shape options works well if you want to create a family of dolls, or show little ones growing up into their dream roles. We’re delighted to see a diverse representation of skin colour, hair and gender in this collection aimed at crocheters of all levels.
