Reviews
If you want to add some greenery to your home but you’re not green-fingered, then why not crochet a houseplant? In her new book, Emma Varnam has created an amigurumi garden with 24 patterns for succulents, flowers and houseplants, complete with a range of crocheted pots, soil and even a watering can. They even have mouths and eyes to give them extra personality. Along with the patterns, there’s a comprehensive guide to crochet materials, techniques and finishing touches, which makes the designs accessible for beginners. Favourite makes include the Mini Furry Cactus, which uses mohair yarn to create the plant’s fluffy look; the colourful Pretty Pansy; and the leafy Funky Fern. * Knitting magazine *
