Raffia Crochet: 10 contemporary crochet patterns with raffia yarn

Awesome book of crochet raffia patterns. At least one pattern that is exclusive to this collection.

nice book very helpfull,

Great book

But some of the instructions are confusing. Not written in standard crochet terms.

This is an interesting look at working with raffia yarn. I'm personally not a fan of raffia. I think it's coarse and uncomfortable to work with, but I haven't tried the raffia from Wool and the Gang, so I can't say anything about that.The book is as amusing as the company itself. The titles of the projects are cute and quirky, as are the names of the yarns used. The photography is really good, and the projects are practical and things that people may want to make, so that's always a plus. The layout is nice and the instructions seem pretty clear. There are also handy diagrams, explanations for basic stitches, and helpful tips for working with the raffia.If raffia is your thing, this is a good project book. I'd say the projects may work with other types of ribbon yarns or sisal or cording, but I haven't tried any of the projects for myself. Too many ideas, too little time.I received a preview copy of this book from Netgalley and these are my own honest opinions.

Money worth

I love the projects in this book. I am teaching myself to crochet and the instructions are fairly easy for me to understand. I especially like that market bag and would like to attempt that project.Many thanks to F-W Media and to NetGalley for providing me with a galley in exchange for my honest opinion.

It doesn’t have many of the projects from their site that I was hoping it would. I think it had 1-2 of the 6 patterns I wanted. I’ll keep it though. I may have leftover jute to make something with it.

It is a perfect book for crocheting with raffia. The ideas are great.

I have the difficulties following the instructions of the book.

This was a great purchase to improve my crochet skills! The stylish designs are very clearly explained for beginners. The customisation projects are very easy and will definitely make my garments stand out.Thanks to Wool and the Gang!

Book full of fun projects. Great book, fantastic patterns

Nice book haven’t made anything from it yet but will do
