Crochet in a Weekend by Salena Baca

Crochet in a Weekend by Salena Baca

By using bigger yarn and hooks, openwork patterns, easy stitches, and other quick-crochet techniques, the patterns in Crochet in a Weekend can all be worked in approximately 10 to 12 hours or less--perfect for a relaxing weekend (or two) of your favorite hobby.

The concept is easy, and the clear and concise instructions really make it possible to complete any project in a weekend!

It was very difficult to choose, but my top favs would be the Gemstone Poncho, Low Tide Shrug, Warlock Wrap, Picnic Vest, and the Lotus Blossom TunicI highly recommend this book because every single design is unique, the fabrics are beautiful, the styles and fit are great, and the easy repeats make for a relaxing and stress-free crochet time!

The title Crochet in a Weekend aptly describes the projects in this book. You can grab your hook and favorite yarn on Friday night and easily have a new wearable by the end of the weekend. I highly recommend Crochet in a Weekend to anyone who would like to learn to crochet wearables, and for those who would like to build on their knowledge of crocheting wearables.

-- Sheryl Hock

The great thing about this collection is the variety, ranging from light weight summer tops and vests to cozy cardigans and ponchos in bulky yarns and lots in between. With so many different styles and stitch patterns to try, your main problem will be deciding what to make first!

I hope you enjoy making items from Crochet in a Weekend as much as I have. So far I’ve tried 17 of the designs, with others still on my “to do” list, plus several I will definitely be making again!
