Introduction

If you are like me, you just love the way it feels to wear a new sweater you created -- especially when everyone compliments you on both your appearance and your skill!

For this book, I have created a collection of 24 great-looking crocheted garments. A variety of techniques, yarns, and skill levels are included in these projects, from the traditional Motif-Bordered Tunic to the more contemporary Interlocked Triangles Jacket.

They all are, I hope, as much fun to make as they will be to wear!

Happy Crocheting!
