Inside Crochet - 141

I'm so excited to share this month's issue with you!

We can finally get started on Jane Crowfoot's stunning new crochet-along, with part one being revealed on page 20 and Jane's wonderful introduction walking us through our Indigo Dreams adventure. Why not join our fabulous Facebook community with members from all over the world, all poised to share their blanket journeys over the next few months?

In the spirit of the joy our crochet skills can bring to both ourselves and others, we've filled this issue with delightful patterns for gifts so you can start your Christmas crafting in plenty of time. From Sarah-Jane Hicks's loveable Classic Teddy Bear and mini Matchbox Fairies through to stylish accessories such as Eleonora Tully's pretty Mosaic Mittens and Claire Montgomerie's exquisite vintage-style brooches, we have contemporary ideas that will delight everyone. Plus, we are still committed to bringing you garment designs that prove crochet can be just as beautiful and wearable as knitting, Lisa Cook's elegant Tweedy Poncho is already on my hook and who doesn't need an oversized Snuggle Cardigan for Christmas morning?

Talking of festivities, if you have caught the micro crochet bug from Kwannie Cheng, and you've started hooking your very own Gingerbread House from last issue, then turn straight to page 14 to start adding your furniture - complete with a roaring fire and a delicious mug of hot chocolate. Perfection!
