Here at Simply Crochet, we try to bring something new to even the most tried-and-tested designs. For instance, we’ve given Fair Isle a summer makeover on page 14 and used fresh, fruity colours to spice up a twin set on page 42. We also like giving pieces a new spin with unusual textures and stitches – check out the wavy poncho on page 55, the popcorn-stitch cushion on page 77 and the glamorous, sparkly robes on the Queen Elizabeth II amigurumi on page 29. Please share your makes on Instagram tagged #sctreblemaker, or on our Facebook group Simply Crochet SCtreblemakers, as we love to see them.
