"Scarves are small projects so you don't have to invest a lot in time and materials, yet the results can have a big impact," says Silverman. "They are a great way to add some pizzazz to your wardrobe. I chose yarns in a variety of colorways, weights, and materials. Because they are one size fits all, scarves also make ideal gifts. In this book, new crocheters will find patterns they can complete with confidence; expert stitchers will be happy with complex patterns and interesting techniques."
Sharon Silverman is known for her crystal clear instructions and meticulous patterns. Crochet Scarves contains text instructions, technique photos, and symbol charts for every pattern. The back of the book has instructions for basic crochet stitches, as well as a list of resources and a visual index.
