Full of tips and techniques on crochet, types of yarn bombing, and at-home projects for the beginner and advanced crocheter, Crochet with London Kaye promises to engage and inspire crafty readers around the world. With beautiful photos of her most admired street art pieces, yarn artist London Kaye brings the lesser-known world of yarn bombing into focus, with the added bonus of more than a dozen of her most sought-after patterns: crochet covers for your sneakers, a vibrant oral case for that blue IKEA bag everyone has at home, or her signature eyeball that you can personalize and add to your own bag, jacket, or attire of your choosing. Her projects are unlike anything else you’ll find today, and this book is the only place you can find them. Yarn has always been a popular medium, but in the hands of artists like Kaye, it becomes a vibrant new form for expression and personal creativity.

Crochet with London Kaye – submitted by sara on June 17, 2020, 5:33pm It was actually fun to read about her yarn bombing, as well as browse patterns. I love the crochet sneekers and the Ikea bag hack. Huge needles and yarn make the projects quick. There is info given how to hang items on fences, but not on cement walls- as many of her items are featured.
