Make a Statement with Wearable Art

Have you ever seen a fashion piece that made you stop in your tracks? Get ready to be wowed by the magnificent wearables by innovative crochet artist and founder of CrochetHighway, Ana-Maria Babanica. Ana-Maria uses the interlocking crochet technique to create a stunning, durable, double-sided fabric--so each piece can be turned inside out for two completely different looks. With vibrant colors peeking through the interlocking stitches, this brilliant method will add a spectacular twist to your handmade collection.

Ana-Maria has packed this pattern book full of variety with 7 mini collections, each featuring one statement sweater and one or two matching accessories, such as a hooded cowl, scarf or beanie. All sweaters are size-inclusive with sizes XS to 5X. At the beginning of each collection, Ana-Maria walks you step by step through making a gauge swatch. Use the written instructions and detailed photo tutorial to master that chapter's unique stitch pattern before diving into the actual projects.

These stunning patterns are ideal for intermediate and advanced crocheters who have a foundational knowledge of basic crochet techniques and are looking for an exciting challenge that will make them stand out in the crowd. Stitch by stitch, watch the magic unfold as you create your most beautiful handmade garments yet.
