Yes, I'm biased, Yes Interweave gave me a copy of Clever Crocheted Accessories and I'm taking a large measure of joy that my hat is on the cover.

When I heard that I had a pattern included in this amazing compilation of big names in the Crochet Business, of course I was thrilled. THEN,
Brett Bara told me that she liked my hat so much, she MADE ONE for herself! (GASP!) When I saw the cover with my Saturday Hat on it, I nearly fell off the couch. Really, it was exciting.
In beautiful Interweave fashion (Think
Unexpected Afghans,
Blueprint Crochet,
Simply Crochet., etc) the photography is clean and engaging, the patterns clear and tested. In this accessory book is everything from hats to jewelry, socks, mittens, belts to capelets... no, really, it starts with a hat (mine! squee!) and ends with a Chunky Capelet (
Doris Chan!) 25 Quick weekend projects.
And in between are names you will know and love: Robyn Chachula, Marly Bird, Drew Emborsky, Vickie Howell, Linda Permann, Amy Polcyn... I really would love to carry around Regina Rioux's Amazing Motif Bag.
If you like my Saturday Hat, it's a Bruges Lace style pattern, check out my book Learn Bruges Lace for two more Bruges style hat patterns plus a blanket, a bracelet, a cowl, and two scarves in this exciting style.
