Have you seen this new book on Baby shoes to crochet? Too cute for words well,  managed to come up with a few for you . . . adorable, imaginative, delightful, lovable, darling and enchanting, enough for you?

baby shoes to crochet book

Baby Shoes to crochet by Lucia Forthmann.

Baby shoes to crochet, fashionable styles for little feet, by Lucia Forthmann is published by search press. £7.99

As you may know, I like to review a book by making something from it. In this way I can test the pattern writing and instructions.
I hooked up a tiny boot and am halfway through the other. These are mainly amigurumi style patterns, worked in the rounds, some concentration will be useful!

Things I liked about this book:

  1. Easy to follow charts, (I have just started to use charts) Normal crochet stitch instructions are included too.
  2. Beautiful on trend designs.
  3. Good beginner instructions and illustrations for the stitches used.
  4. Well photographed.
  5. 16 designs, all modeled on grown up shoes..there is even a Timberland style boot too!
  6. 64 pages and excellent value for money at £7.99

 

Some things I would change:

The patterns for the sole of each style of shoe is given at the beginning of the book. I prefer my patterns all in one go, even if it means repetition. In this way you dont have to keep turning the pages back and forth. Just a little thing I know, but if thats all I would change must be a good book eh?

Search press kindly sent me two copies of this book* so would you like one too? Just leave a comment, here on the blog. below and tell me why you would like this book.

I will pop you all in a random draw and the winner gets the book. Simple.

Please not the giveaway will close on Saturday 6th August 2016.

So would anyone like to win a copy of this book: baby shoes to crochet , please leave a comment below.
