The Granny Square Stitches Card Deck

Author: Claire Montgomerie

50 stunning stitch patterns in a stylish card deck, perfect for on-the-go crochet! Crochet the swatch squares as shown to mix and match them, or use the simple instructions to scale up the stitch patterns for your own crochet projects.

New from Claire Montgomerie, author of the sell-out sensations The Granny Square Card Deck and The Granny Square Flowers Card Deck.

The sturdy, stylish box contains 50 colorful cards, each with a gorgeous granny square to make, mix and match. On the front of each 4 x 4in card is a color photograph of the finished granny square, and nothing else. This allows you to lay out the designs and easily mix, match and create your own design combinations. Simply flip the card over to find the instructional crochet chart and joining instructions.

Also within is a 32-page booklet, which contains a comprehensive step-by-step guide to reading and understanding crochet charts, with two written patterns for you to compare side by side. You'll also find methods for edging and joining your swatches, guidance on scaling up the stitch multiples to create new patterns, plus advice so that you can achieve colour success every time.

The perfect tool to help you mix and match granny square designs for any handmade project, this stylish card deck can be easily slipped into your bag for on-the-go crochet. Each square is made using the same hook and yarn weight and is the same finished size, so that the squares can be joined together in any combination with ease.

With 50 colorful designs to choose from and customize, this fun and versatile card deck is the ideal gift for any crocheter, and perfect for visual learners.
