The August 2020 issue of Crochet World is now available as a digital download here and will be available at your favorite craft and book store beginning June 23. With 25 great projects, you’ll be happily stitching all summer long!

We’ve included a chapter of fun, easy projects in our Stress-Free Crochet section–perfect for those moments when you just want to unwind.

Make the Sun & Shadow Table Runner and add a touch of summer to your table decor.

The Woven Pillow would make a nice comfy addition to your favorite chair.

Or crochet the Margo Shawl in a pretty variegated yarn. The 2-row repeat means you’ll have the pattern memorized in no time!

You’ll find other fast and fun projects in this issue, too. Make a set of Soup Bowl Cozys to leave by the microwave for warming up leftovers.

The Beautiful Baby headbands and scrunchies are not only quick to make, but would make the perfect birthday gift for a special little girl.

 

Have your tried Mosaic Crochet? Mosaic crochet is a technique where you can create
tons of colorful geometric patterns, but you only have to work with one color per row!

This is achieved by working one to two rows skipping stitches in a sequential pattern, then filling in the skipped stitches with an alternate color on the next row.

It is really quite fun and addictive! We’ve included two photo tutorials and a few easy projects to get you going.

Start by making the Mosaic Tiles Place Mat to get the hang of it, and then progress on to the gorgeous Morocco Mosaic Afghan!

 

We’ve also included an article about Hat Not Hate, an anti-bullying campaign launched by Lion Brand Yarn Company and their brand ambassador, Shira Blumenthal. The campaign raises anti-bullying awareness by distributing blue hats to school-aged children each October. We’ve included 2 hat patterns so you can join in this worthwhile cause.

You won’t want to miss out on all the great patterns, tutorials and articles, so make sure to get your copy soon! Or better yet, subscribe here and never miss a single issue!
