I am so grateful for the opportunity to review “Reversible Color Crochet” by Laurinda Reddig! In Laurinda’s new book, she shares 28 afghan block patterns that lead to 10 afghan patterns. Laurinda also shares how to create these beautiful afghans with new techniques, while incorporating amazing colorwork.Each pattern featured in Reversible Color Crochet is unique and there are a variety of stitch patterns including stripes, chevrons, diamonds, diagonals, and more. Reversible Color Crochet also has a great section on how to get started with the book and what materials and tools are needed to make the afghan blocks. Laurinda also provides a guide for special stitches and a crochet symbol key to help you decipher what those charts and symbols mean. There is also a great section at the end for yarn management and other hints, as well as a glossary. Here are some of my favorite projects from the book:
