Modern Granny Stitch by Claudine Powley

Get your granny on with this collection of 12 different crochet wearables-one for each month of the year - all made using the humble granny square stitch.

There are lighter knits for summer days and heavier knits for the cooler months, all made using the granny stitch in a variety of innovative ways.

The granny stitch isn't just for squares - it is an incredibly versatile stitch and can be used lots of different ways: including stripes, chevrons, colour block patterns, Aztec-inspired stitch patterns and even a fair isle style yoke.

The patterns in this collection are not overly complex and some of them will be suitable for absolute beginners. All of the clothing patterns will be graded to be as size inclusive as possible and there are a selection of accessories offering a choice of quicker, easier makes.
