The library has a new crochet book called Crochet Compendium: The Ultimate Collection of Crochet Techniques by Connie Ellison. This book has a few pages describing each of 17 types of crochet from basic to fancy to "alternate" such as broomstick lace, tunisian, and double-ended crochet. There's a bit on felting and crocheting socks.
For crocheting with a regular hook, you'll find out how to do slip-stich crochet which looks like weaving, intarsia and mosaic crochet, filet crochet, beading, doilies, waffle-weave, and wiggly crochet.
There are lots of colorful pictures to go along with the descriptions so you can see how it's all done.
Be sure to look for it when you stop in.
Happy crafting,
Kathi
