Book Review: Rainbow Crocheted Blankets: A Block-By-Block Guide to Creating Colourful Afghans and Throws
Rainbow Crocheted Blankets: A Block-By-Block Guide to Creating Colourful Afghans and Throws by Amanda Perkins
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
If you’ve ever met me, you probably know that I crochet. A lot. There’s probably yarn dangling out of my tote bag right now. One of my favorite things to make are blocks. They can be assembled into countless items and are a fun way to use up yarn scraps. I read this book in hopes of learning some new looks for blocks. I was not disappointed! There’s also lots of hexagons, triangles, and circles too!
If you want to make an afghan out of the blocks, there’s plenty of layout patterns to help you choose colors and arrangements. All in all, it’s a great resource whether you’re a beginner or an old hooker like myself. 🙂
