Making the New Baskets
Who says baskets have to be made of wicker? Why not copper wire, Chinese newspaper, or strips of 35mm film? Or leaves, plastics, ribbon, polymer clay, and cereal-box strips! These 40 imaginative containers use unconventional materials -- and are simply gorgeous. No experience required; learn the four simplest ways to make a basket (weaving, twining, plaiting, and coiling), then choose from a variety of shapes, sizes, and materials. With an eye-opening gallery of inspired baskets.
Crochet
A sparkling new entry in the popular Kids' Crafts series. From colorful shoelaces to shimmering amulet bags, these 50 crocheted creations will enchant kids and take them from the very beginning to a more experienced level. Even children who have never picked up a pair of needles will master the fundamentals quickly, thanks to the many detailed directions and instructive, attractive color photos. The fun begins as youngsters try their hand at the basic chain stitch, and then learn to crochet around a ring to make a key chain. Small, accessible projects follow, including a yellow purse with a glass button accent and comfy wool slippers. As kids' skills increase, they can move on to clothes, toys, backpacks, and more.
