All-New Twenty to Make: Crochet Baby Blankets by Val Pierce

Crochet 20 snuggable, huggable heirloom baby blankets, from best-selling author Val Pierce.

Create a gorgeous range of stash-busting keepsakes for your little ones to cuddle and cherish.

A handmade blanket is the perfect gift for a newborn or young child: ideal for that first journey home from the hospital; for keeping them cozy in a stroller; and for tucking them in at bedtime. Whether you prefer traditional colours and simple repeating motifs or want to experiment with appliqué, lacework and more, you’ll find a design to suit your taste:

• The small size of the blankets – ranging from security to a little coverlet – makes them quick and rewarding to make and great stash-busters.
• There are 20 easy-to-follow patterns, featuring an inspiring mix of techniques, with some suitable for even complete beginners.
• Clear conversion charts for crochet stitches and hooks included. Only UK crochet terms are used throughout the book.

These meaningful, comforting keepsakes are designed to be loved, snuggled and then passed on to future generations.

Val Pierce's passion for crochet and knitting began when her father taught her to knit at the age of five. Having worked for many major yarn companies and various well-known designers, she decided it was time to branch out and begin making her own designs, and her designs appear regularly in national knitting and crochet magazines. She teaches a range of needlecrafts, to both adults and children. Val lives and works in Shropshire, UK.
