Creative Modern Crochet for the Home: Stunning projects using simple techniques

Authors: Lucy Djevdet

These 12 practical projects, made from a range of contemporary textures including raffia, jute and macrame cord as well as yarn, will spruce up your home and your mood! Fresh, bold and functional, there are homeware patterns for all crochet abilities, and every technique needed is shown clearly step by step.

Get organized with a stylish and practical hanging fruit basket, created from macrame cord and designed to keep your produce fresh. Snuggle up with a cozy blanket and comfy pillow, made with chunky feather stitch for a stylish geometric finish. Use sturdy raffia yarn to create on-trend storage baskets in four different sizes – perfect for use in any room of the house. Create a decorative doormat using jute twine for a practical, hard-wearing finish. Make do rather than buy new: update an old vase with a stylish cover, create a new shade for an old lamp and transform used tins into stunning hanging herb planters.

For a stunningly textured, multi-craft finish, several of the projects incorporate touches of weaving and macrame, both of which are also clearly explained.

Lucy's stylish designs support a sustainable lifestyle and will inject colour and joy into any home setting.
