20 granny squares, multiple colour combinations, over 100 stunning geometric patterns!
Transform simple crochet squares into endless, colourful design possibilities, with bestselling author Leonie Morgan.
Suitable for all skill levels, this vibrant and contemporary guide features 20 stunning granny squares, each presented in multiple, inspirational colourways to mix, match and experiment with.
- From bold geometric designs to fresh, modern twists on traditional motifs, this book shows how a single granny square can become the foundation for a huge variety of designs. With clear, inspiring visuals, this book shows you how to rotate and repeat your squares to create a huge range of striking layouts.
- Each granny square pattern includes clear written instructions, easy-to-follow charts and large, detailed images, ensuring crocheters of all levels can enjoy success.
- Leonie’s focus on colour theory sets this book apart, helping you to confidently select and combine colour combinations for striking results. The introductory section covers everything from monochrome and analogous palettes to complementary and high-contrast colour schemes.
- With 4 practical projects to try – including a blanket, cushion cover, scarf and decorative wall hanging – and a comprehensive stitch guide and techniques section, this is both an inspirational design resource and a hands-on crochet companion. <
What really stands out in this book isn’t just the individual motifs (although there are plenty to enjoy)… it’s what happens when those motifs come together.
Leonie has a real talent for colour. Not just “that looks nice” colour — but intentional, graphic, almost architectural use of colour.
If you enjoy granny squares, this book will give you plenty to make. If you enjoy colourwork, this book will give you ideas. And if you’ve ever wondered how some crocheted pieces look so striking and cohesive… this book quietly shows you how it’s done.
