In Our Fourth Issue

Ah, summer...warm days, breezy evenings—the perfect time for lace crochet. This issue highlights this hallmark of crochet with everything from summer shoulder shawls to lacy throws, all in projects no more challenging than intermediate skill level. Click here to see this issue's table of contents.

In this issue, we celebrate our independence with a pair of designs for the home—Fourth of July Placemat Set and Star and Stripes Throw, both of which are also perfect for a family picnic. Teach a child about eating healthy with crocheted veggies—and make a tote to carry them in. Learn a special bead crochet technique with our Summer Shells Necklace. Have fun with “Gram’s Hands” when Gram creates finger-crocheted bracelets with her granddaughter Nina. And that’s just the start...there’s so much more in this issue!
