Simple crochet patterns for stylish makes in natural yarns and modern colors.

Susan Ritchie and Karen Miller, the proprietors of Mrs Moon, an online yarn store, show you how to create your own modern-casual crochet garments, accessories, and home decorations in beautiful, natural yarns.

There are easy-to-hook chunky projects that will grow so fast you'll be finished in a day, and larger or more intricate items that will take longer but are well worth every stitch you hook into them.

Many of the pieces are perfect for beginners, such as a chevron blanket, a simple beanie, or a snuggly cowl. Other projects introduce textured stitches so you can expand your skills with the help of the techniques section. Choose to make a delicately lacy ombré scarf, a granny-square coatigan, or a giant cuddly owl that children will love.

Whatever your skill level, Susan and Karen's stunning patterns will inspire you to crochet designs for your home, your friends, your family, and of course, yourself.
