crochet artist: Susanna Bauer

Afbeelding
This week the blog is about crochet artists. Artists who use the delicacy of crochet and the inspiration of nature to create the most beautiful pieces of art. Today I'm going to start with Susanna Bauer , who combines very fine crochet with natural materials like stone, pieces of wood and dried leaves. I especially love her 2D work with dried leaves. Sometimes crochet is used as an embellishment, but mostly it is used in a constructional way. Crocheting pieces of leaf together or filling in holes. Although very small, they are true pieces of art. For more of her work you can look on her website: susannabauer

book: Calamity Free Crochet

Afbeelding
In August last year I was approached by an English book publisher. If I was interested cooperating on a new book on crochet, to be published in spring 2014 in the US. They had seen my Etsy shop and wanted to use some pictures for the gallery pages. Of course I said yes and I was very honoured. Now the time is finally here. Since February the book: 'Calamity-Free Crochet' by Catherine Hirst is available in the US. It's a nice book on crochet and next to the basics; stitches, needles, yarn, etc, it also pays attention to the little problems you can encounter. Tips, tricks and troubleshooting that come in handy not only for the beginner but also for the more experienced crocheter. It's definitely a good addition to my crochetbooks collection.
