Rustic Modern Crochet

18 Designs Inspired by Nature

In Rustic Modern Crochet Yumiko Alexander showcases 18 clean, sophisticated crochet designs. Yumiko’s garments feature eye-catching construction based on very simple lines that come together in unexpected ways. Stitch patterns have central focus here, as the silhouettes or shapes are kept simple to emphasize the crocheted fabric. Her pieces are versatile enough that they can be dressed up or down according to your fancy.

Yumiko takes her inspiration from the natural world – tide-swept sand, shells, coral, shale rock formations, the colors of sunset. Her nature-inspired palette is brought to life using luscious yarns that are as pleasing to the hand as they are to the eye.

These 18 designs will appeal to both younger and more mature crocheters. Versatility is key in the sizing as well: designs will feel at home on wearers from size small to XXL. Experienced beginner crocheters will be able to complete these projects, and intermediate crocheters will find patterns to love!
