Now, children ages five to ten years old can learn the super-fun art of crocheting by simply reading one delightful story. The first children's crochet pattern storybook, Karen D. Thompson's engaging, easy-to-read introduction to crocheting is a terrific way to teach a young person a new skill, and to spend quality time with them. With a cast of colorful characters, as well as vibrant illustrations by Tony Smith, Crocheting with Lucy Loop is sure to inspire any child to stitch, hook, and have a great time. Down in the town of Yarnsville, a pretty piece of yarn named Lucy Loop dreams of becoming a beautiful crochet item. Luckily for her, The Great Hook wants to help her do just that. When Lucy is picked for a crochet project, he guides the way to crocheting something that is warm and wonderful. As the project continues, Lucy learns to craft a chain, a single crochet, and create a new row of single crochet stitches, and make it come together as a marvelous fabric. The story was inspired by the author's own experience teaching children to crochet, who discovered that repeating the simple narrative helped children remember the stitches. From there, Crocheting with Lucy Loop provides children with everything they need to know to get started with crocheting, including words on safety with crochet tools, holding the hook, and explaining important crocheting terms such as slip knot, chain stitch, and more. The book also features a pattern at the end of the book to serve as the child's first project. Playful and humorous, Crocheting with Lucy Loop will give children the tools they need to learn a lifelong skill and provides adults with an ideal activity to share with the children in their lives. It's an entertaining, educational way to create something of beauty with a growing child.
