Thread Crochet Books?

[Lena]

Hi,

 

I would love to learn how to do thread crochet. Do you have any books or sites to recommend?

 

(I already know how to crochet with yarn)

 

Thanks!

Easy Doilies by Leasure Arts is good.

Some Great advice there

 

Or if you are feeling adventerous - just get yourself a ball of #10 and #7 hook and jump right into a doily. There are tons of free doily patterns looming around.

I am doing this as my first thread doiley... and it is going well. Very simple, but I am getting used to the small hook and thread...

If you can find some snowflake patterns, start with those. There are a good way to learn thread. (That was my first thread project many years ago)

 

They are small and quick and you don't have anything to lose if you mess up....just start over. Gauge doesn't matter and you don't have a lot of time/material invested while you are learning. Best of all this time of year you can use them for holiday decorations.

 

You should be able to find Leisure Arts leaflets with dozens of designs at a craft store, or you may be able to find free patterns online. Good luck!
