Summary

Novelty crocheters will love this collection of beautiful and realistic flowers to crochet by Jan Ollis, each costing only fifty-cents a pattern; and are little projects that are perfect for when they are on-the-go. Every design is accompanied by an alternative in a different color scheme, and full crochet instructions are given for each flower, together with lists of the materials and equipment needed. Each flower is photographed twice, one so that crocheters can see the design clearly, and the other to show the beautiful possibilities of the finished pieces, including brooches, and embellishments on hats, bags, sweaters, place mats, cushions, scarves and even shoes.

Author Biography

Jan Ollis comes from a family of crafters and cannot remember a time when she was not creating something. Her Great Aunt taught her how to crochet, and many years later she went on to complete a degree in Fashion and Textile Design. After working in a number of textile and non-textile related jobs, Jan started Chi Chi Moi – a small business making hand-knitted and crocheted accessories. Jan lives in Somerset with her partner Ben, and has two grown-up children.
