Simple Natural Crochet

Susan Ritchie and Karen Miller, the proprietors of Mrs. Moon, an online yarn shop, show you how to crochet 35 modern-casual garments, accessories and homewares in beautiful, eco-friendly natural yarns.

There are easy-to-hook chunky projects that will grow so fast you'll be finished in a day, and larger or more intricate items that will take longer but are well worth every stitch you hook into them.

Many of the pieces are perfect for beginners, such as a chevron blanket, a simple beanie or a snuggly cowl. Other projects introduce textured stitches so you can expand your skills with the help of the techniques section. Make a lacy scarf, a granny-square coatigan or a giant cuddly owl that children will love.

Whatever your skill level, Susan and Karen's stunning patterns will inspire you to crochet designs for your home, your friends, your family and, of course, yourself.
