My good friend, Sharon Silverman, has written another book: "Crochet Scarves: Fabulous Fashions, Various Techniques". Sharon's books always have excellent step by step photos and lots of great tips. This book is no exception. In this book, you can experiment with a varitety of techniques, including tunisian, broomstick lace and many more, but in small projects to get a lot of practice and instant gratification!

Leave a message below telling me which crochet technique you'd like to learn before the summer is over. I'll pick one winner randomly next week to win a copy of this book!

I would love to learn tunisian crochet before the end of the summer. The book sounds wonderful having small projects to really learn the craft! Can't wait to go and take a look at it!

[Linda Quick]

I would so love to learn Tunisian lace. I like the idea of loose Tunisian stitches. Something a bit different.

[anne j-z]

I would love to learn Tunisian this summer.

[Ruth]

I would like to learn how to do broomstick lace.

[Linda Rumsey]

I'd just love to learn to crochet - so many gorgeous knitting patterns feature crochet in some way that I really need to teach myself, but can never seem to get the hang of it.

[Kim Barlow]

Definitely need more time with Tunisian! Looking forward to the new book.

[Kate M]

I am hoping to learn Tunisian by the end of this summer. I just purchased a class from Craftsy for this, and hope I can learn a lot. Thanks for the chance to win!

[Rebecca]

I would love to learn Broomstick Lace before the end of the Summer. It is such a beautiful technique & I love the idea of simple projects when learning new things. Your Cables & Lace Broomstick Hat is on my "to do" list. It would be fun to have a matching scarf as well.

[Barbara Lucas-Wilson]

I'd love to learn broomstick lace. I remember watching my Mom do it, but I haven't gotten there yet.

[Norah]

I'd love to learn hairpin lace by the end of the summer. I've had your Tranquil Lace Hairpin Tunic in my Rav queue for quite some time. I have the yarn, I just need to learn the technique.

[Yarnitect]

I'm seeing a lot of broomstick lately. I'd love to learn that. This looks like such a fun book! I'd love to get my hands on a copy of this!

[anastacia]

i've never done broomstick lace!

[Julia Gary]

I would like to learn tunisian and broomstick lace stitches before the summer ends. I was unable to take a class at the summer Chain Link conference because they were all sold out. But could easily do so with Sharon's book since I am a visuaal learner - as well as a left handed crocheter. I would love to be a winner of her new book. Thanks for hosting this drawing!

[Marguerite]

I would love to learn broomstick lace and a scarf would be a perfect project.

[eyeballemma]

I would like to perfect my tunisian technique and I am also currently "learning" to work with lace weight yarn, both i'd like to use in some sort of shawl, starting this fall.

[Anne Marie H]

I've been wanting to learn tunisian for a while now.

[Rachel]

I would love to learn broomstick lace. I have learned tunisian crochet, it looks great in large hooks and fine yarn. Would love to win the book, Thanks for the opportunity.
