Creative Modern Crochet For The Home: Stunning Projects Using Simple Techniques

Brighten up your home with 12 inspiring modern crochet projects from popular crafter Lucy Djevdet (craftingbylucy).

Featuring fresh designs and contemporary textures, this book contains design-led, sustainable projects that will help you ‘make do’ rather than ‘buy new’.

These 12 practical projects, made from a range of contemporary textures including raffia, jute and macramé cord as well as yarn, will spruce up your home and your mood! Fresh, bold and functional, there are homeware patterns for all crochet abilities, and every technique needed is shown clearly step by step.

  • Get organized with a stylish and practical hanging fruit basket, created from macramé cord and designed to keep your produce fresh;
  • Snuggle up with a cozy blanket and comfy pillow, made with chunky feather stitch for a trendy geometric finish;
  • Use sturdy raffia yarn to create on-trend storage baskets in four different sizes – perfect for use in any room of the house;
  • Create a decorative doormat using jute twine for a practical, hard-wearing finish;
  • Update an old vase with a contemporary cover, create a new shade for an old lamp and transform used tins into colourful hanging herb planters.

For a stunningly textured, multi-craft finish, several of the projects incorporate touches of weaving and macramé, both of which are also clearly explained.

Lucy's stylish designs support a sustainable lifestyle and will inject colour and joy into any home setting.

An ingenious combination of crochet, macramé, and weaving makes these 12 home projects pop. Known online as craftingbylucy, UK-based crochet designer Djevdet does into great detail on up-front matters in her first book, with a review of materials and tools, in-depth looks at stitch anatomy and special stitches, and notes about the intricacies of related-to-crochet activities. The dozen unique projects include a raffia lamp shade, a versatile and sturdy jute rug, and a blanket. High-quality color photographs of both individual steps and finished products are included, along with instructions and the usual features, such as skill level, gauge/tension, approximate time needed, and making up. Many of the yarns specified are higher-end, and substitutions may not be readily available. Fans of any of the crafts Djevdet combines here may need to add another hobby to the list!

In contrast to most crochet handbooks’ focus on clothing or bedding, the projects in this fresh debut guide from Djevdet show how to make a variety of household goods, including a lampshade, a mirror frame, and hanging planters. An overview of crochet fundamentals explains such basic techniques as slip stitches and double crochets, as well as more advanced stitches, such as crab (single crochet stitches worked left to right) and moss (a combination of chain and single crochet stitches). The projects employ numerous fibers and weights. For instance, the feather stitch pillow is made with super bulky acrylic yarn, and the lidded storage baskets require light worsted raffia and cotton. Several incorporate other crafting methods, such as the hanging fruit baskets, which use a macramé cord to join the containers to the wooden ring they dangle from, and the crocheted wall hanging, which involves some weaving. The relatively sparse guidance on macramé and weaving might leave some readers feeling challenged by the projects that use these techniques, but the explanation of how to crochet is comprehensive and the creative designs show that the craft is good for more than scarves and blankets. This stands out amid the crowded field of crochet manuals.

For those who aspire to create handmade home decor with a contemporary vibe, regular Inside Crochet designer Lucy Djevdet's new book is the perfect starting point. From stylish storage to decorative pieces, each of the 12 designs has a fresh, modern look combined with practicality too. 

many projects focus on sustainability, including a reusable market bag, a clever project to upcycle a lampshade using colourful raffia, and turning old food tins into herb pots with hanging planters. Although these projects are designed to be beginner-friendly, Lucy often incorporates other crafts such as macramé and weaving, using interesting materials such as twine or cord - with all stitches and techniques explained in step-by-step visual guides. 

For those who love to keep their home organised - or aspire to! - this book has some stylish ideas for keeping things tidy, many of which look like pieces from high-street brands. We love the combination of hessian fabric, jute and garden twine to create hardwearing hanging garden storage - perfect for stashing plant markers, seed packets and other small items. We also love the fashion-forward rug with scalloped edges and a pop of pink, the colourful wall hanging that combines tapestry crochet with weaving, and the cute macramé-inspired mirror frame incorporating wooden beading.

This is a gorgeous collection of clever, on-trend pieces to bring a fresh look to your home this spring.

The Perfect Sandal for Active Kids!
Size: 8 Toddler, Color: Navy
I recently purchased the Stride Rite 360 Boy's Paddy Sandal for my son, and I couldn't be happier with my decision! From the moment he slipped his feet into these sandals, I could tell we were both going to be very pleased. Comfort & Fit: 5/5 - The Paddy Sandal has surpassed all expectations in terms of comfort and fit. The adjustable straps make it incredibly easy to get a snug, perfect fit for my son's feet, ensuring the sandals stay securely on, no matter how much running and jumping he does. The soles are cushioned just right, offering support without sacrificing flexibility, which is essential for a growing child. Durability: 5/5 - Stride Rite has always been synonymous with quality, and these sandals are no exception. They've endured days at the park, sandy beaches, and endless pavement adventures, yet they show minimal wear and tear. The materials are top-notch, promising many more months of active use. Ease of Use: 5/5 - For busy parents, the ease with which these sandals can be put on and taken off is a huge relief. The hook and loop closure is strong and stays in place, but it's simple enough for my son to handle on his own, fostering his independence. Overall Experience: 5/5 - It's rare to find a shoe that ticks all the boxes for both parent and child, but the Stride Rite 360 Boy's Paddy Sandal does just that. They've been a fantastic investment in my son's summer wardrobe and overall comfort during his daily activities. I would highly recommend these sandals to any parent looking for a reliable, comfortable, and stylish option for their child. Stride Rite has outdone themselves once again!
