New Books For November

September 27, 2013 by Shellie Wilson

design-original-book-reviews-craft-zentangle

Fox Publishing has just sent us out a sneak peek of some November additions. I love the pipe cleaner book, once you have mastered the techniques you could pop a few pipe cleaners in your handbag and pop them out at the bus stop.

Making Pipe Cleaner Pets – Twist, bend, and shape pipe cleaners into 23 different dog breeds with Making Pipe Cleaner Pets. This book shows readers how to craft a realistic pipe cleaner likeness of their favorite pooch, using only a few colorful chenille stems and some inexpensive craft supplies.

 

Sew Me! Sewing Home Decor  Sew Me! Home Décor is geared towards would-be sewers of all ages, who may never have touched a sewing machine or even threaded a needle before. It’s the perfect book for anyone who wants to create handmade home decor to match a personal taste or lifestyle.

 

The Beauty Of Zentangle  – Zentangle is a creative doodling taken to a whole new level. This book showcases different Zentangle artists from around the world.

 

Crochet With Beads – Basic Steps and Techniques. Great book to get you started.

Free Cowl Crochet Pattern – Stiles Cowl

I recently discovered the Stiles Cowl pattern on Crochet.com, and I must say, it’s quickly become one of my favorites! The design is both stylish and practical, perfect for adding a cozy layer during those chilly days.

What I love about this pattern is its versatility; it can be dressed up or down, making it suitable for various occasions. I appreciate that the instructions are clear and easy to follow, which is essential for a smooth crafting experience. I haven’t made it yet, but I can already envision how delightful it will be to wear. The texture looks rich and inviting, and I’m excited to see how the yarn choice will impact the final look.

If you’re looking for a project that combines ease with elegance, I highly recommend checking out the Stiles Cowl pattern. It’s definitely on my list for this season! You can find it here.
