Recenzii
“A crochet classic is reimagined as circles, flowers, triangles, and more, providing building blocks for all sorts of fabulous designs. … Burned out on sweaters and scarves? Stitch up a personalized birthday banner, seam stars into a stylish lampshade, or embellish table linens with pretty paisley motifs instead.”—Knit Simple

As a child, Beatrice Simon was charmed by the magic of crochet, and first learned to crochet granny squares from her Aunt Lila in the 1970s. After working as a language teacher and translator for many years, she rediscovered the endless possibilities for creation using nothing but a hook and some yarn. She has published many patterns through her website (lillicroche.wordpress.com). She lives in Brittany, France.
