Reviews / Votes
So-called "Granny activities" are becoming more popular and finding real traction in society as people, tired of looking at screens all day, are searching for an analog ["activities" instead of "things"?]things to occupy and refocus their brains. With Rowe's newest crochet how-to-book, she opens up possibilities for everyone from beginners to experts. Rowe says she likes dishcloths because they allow crafters to practice new stitches, and they make great gifts.Easy-to-follow directions and beautiful color photos make each pattern come to life; one can imagine getting lost for hours in this wonderfully accessible book. Her emphasis on smart use of the scraps of leftover yarn (cotton is recommended) is a great way to reduce waste. There is a surprising variety of patterns, from square to round to the standout "Flower Scrubbies" with their textured centers for extra scrubbing power. Rowe's deceptively simple book contains a wealth of projects, perfect for those reclaiming their inner granny. -- Nicole Marconi * Booklist *
