Hi! Hello! Welcome to Creative Crochet Projects!

Come on in, pick up your hook, and stay a while. I am so glad you are here.

I have always been a “maker” in some form or another for as long as I can remember. While most children were asking to go to the toy store, my grandma and grandpa were always met with pleas for trips to the craft store. Creating was my ideal playtime.

Growing up, my mom was always making things, from home décor to my costumes for Halloween. DIY’ers have surrounded me my whole life. Thank goodness because it led me here to this book and to you! Crochet is my absolute passion. It offers unlimited possibilities for creating, from afghans that keep your loved ones toasty warm to extreme structural costumes and pieces. As a mother of four boys, my children are my driving force in creating. There is not much better than having your kids come and ask, “Momma, can you make me…?” and you are able to oblige. Handmade is a treasure to me!

Within this book you will find creative projects for every level of crocheter: from absolute beginner, to more advanced projects, and plenty in between. Have fun filling your child’s play kitchen with plush toys like the Sliceable Watermelon, Roll-Away Kitchen Playmat, or the customizable Foldable Hamburger. Or make some colorful accessories that are just as fun to make as they are to wear such as the fun Finger Crochet Scarves, the Squiggles McGee Hat, or a personal favorite, the Asymmetric Owl Wrap. I hope all the patterns within this book inspire you to “play” with your crochet.

I welcome you to follow me on social media @Crochetverse to share your projects from the book.

Much Love and Yarn,

Stephanie Pokorny
