150 Favorite Crochet Motifs from Tokyo's Kazekobo Studio

A first-of-its-kind Japanese crochet stitch dictionary!

For the first time in English, popular knitwear designer Yoko Hatta shows you creative ways to use a little leftover yarn and your own sense of design. You'll find round, square, triangle, polygon and Irish crochet motifs--from really simple to deliciously intricate--all waiting to be incorporated into your latest needlework projects.

• Make scarves and blankets using the all-time favorite granny squares, or shawls using polygons.
  
• Join circles (or throw in some squares) to make fun wall hangings, room dividers and more.
  
• Use beautiful Irish crochet motifs to embellish garments, form the outside of a bag, or make into a brooch.
  
• Find plenty of ideas for using color, from offbeat mono-and-duo-chromatic arrangements to splashy, multicolored pieces.
  

Mastering even just a few of these motifs will open you to endless possibilities. Separate sections explain all the crochet symbols used and show you how to assemble the arrangements.
