Not Your Mama's Crochet

Forget
ugly afghans and dainty doilies and think luxurious throws and
sumptuous sweaters. You can crochet cool stuff that will make everyone
envious—things to spice up your wardrobe and your pad, or gifts to amaze
your "I could never do that" friends. Choose from nearly thirty
projects ranging from elegant to earthy—from a chic shrug to a recycled
denim rug and from fun plush toys to sweaters too good for boys.

In hip style, this guide covers:

* All kinds of yarns and materials, and the tools of the trade
* The basic stitches, shaping, finishing techniques, blocking, and more
* Simple projects that give you close-to-instant gratification and more complex ones that take some commitment
