Some say “stop and smell the flowers”—but the indomitable Nicky Epstein says: Stop and CROCHET them instead!

Beloved designer Epstein gives crocheters a special gift: an exquisite collection of over 40 flowers—plus patterns for garments embellished with her floral designs. Featuring a beautiful layout and magnificent photography, this keepsake volume features stitch pattern flowers, petal constructed flowers, cord flowers, and the extremely popular felted flowers. Some make fanciful pieces of jewelry; others can adorn handicrafts for a fabulous finishing touch. Among the pretty garden blossoms: a calla lily, blue and purple pansies, a delicate lacy white wedding boutonniere; and a selection of floral corkscrews.
