Tapestry Crochet: 64 Playful Patterns for Children is a great tool for decorating a child’s room or a nursery. Each pattern is the same basic square shape but with a different motif or image within its borders. Crochet a select few to use as hanging decorations, or make each of the 64 patterns (or some combination of your favorites) and join them together to form a unique rug or blanket. Patterns are illustrated in a cross-stitch grid style, so you can read and plan out your stitches with ease.
