Filled with crochet patterns for Mandalas and other Rainbow Coloured projects, Boho Crochet is sure to have a project to capture and hold your attention.
Boho Crochet uses a star ranking system for the skill level of each pattern included – 1 star for Beginner, 2 stars for Intermediate, 3 stars for Accomplished and 4 stars for Advanced.
The patterns are in written form with the star rating located directly beneath each Title. You will also find a “You Will Need” indicating what Materials you need to make the project (yarn, hook, embellishments), the gauge you will need to meet to make the same sized project as shown in the images and the finished dimensions of the project. The Weekender Bag also includes a colour charted portion with the written pattern.
Boho Crochet includes a Techniques Section to explain different Tools and Materials, Options for Holding Your Hook, Gauge, Different Stitches (basic – intermediate), Increasing and Decreasing Stitches, Working in the Round, Magic Loop, Working Flat Rounds and Tubular Rounds, Joining in New Colours, Granny Squares and Other Motifs, Joining Motifs, Finishing Your Work, Seams and Joining, Tips for Reading Patterns (punctuation and colour charts), Abbreviations, Yarn Weights, Hooks Sizes and Metric Conversions and Skill Levels.
This is a beautiful book, filled with bright colour and fashionable crochet patterns. I definitely recommend this one for your Crochet Library!

![Tap the link in my bio for more info -> @oombawkadesigncrochet Make this afghan square as part of our You've Got Options Crochet Along with #CALCentralCrochet ♥ This square can be made as a 6 or 12 inch block. ♥ I have named this square Perfect Balance for a number of reasons, one being it is a square and the rounds increase in a very balanced manner. ♥ The second reason is because for the first time in more years than I can remember, I am perfectly balanced emotionally. I have suffered from depression and anxiety since I was in my late teens and although my meds seemed to be working during the spring and summer, once Autumn hit I would always begin to fall into a deeper and darker place. ♥ Last year was the lowest point I’d ever hit and I finally went to see my doctor. She put me on a higher dose of my meds and within a few weeks I felt amazing. ♥ Like a switch had been turned on and the darkness had been banished to the very edges of the room. ♥ I could finally remember how to be happy within my own self. I was no longer screaming on the inside (for no outward reason at all) or sleeping all of the time. ♥ I was nervous as we approached Autumn this year because it is usually when the SAD starts to worsen my symptoms and my mood. ♥ This year I was ready and I hooked up my SAD light and placed it right beside me in the living room (I can’t look straight into it because it really hurts my eyes). I work with that light on all day long, as a desk lamp. It has made a big difference to me as I can feel the warmth of the light (I miss the sunshine so much in the winter!) and the brightness seems to really help my mental state. ♥ This square is my Perfect Balance Square, to celebrate my own journey to where I am today. ♥ This square is easy to crochet and beginner friendly. If you are using a single color, you need only 55 g of medium weight yarn [4], so just over 102 yards. ♥ I wish you all a wonderful 2020 filled with peace and balance. ♥ Rhondda xo](https://oombawkadesigncrochet.com/wp-content/plugins/instagram-feed/img/placeholder.png)

Hi 🙂 Thank you for reading my review of Boho Crochet! I use my mandalas as table covers (like doilies) but some people also use them as wall art 🙂 or make pillows using them – and some even have turned them into squares to make blankets!

Love all the colorful combos in the boho crochet style
now I have to have this book!!! Love the look.
Thank you for this review, so cool!!!
Neat patterns
Thank you for the review of this book. I’ve been debating on if I should get it for quite some time now, I didn’t know if I would be experienced enough to try the patterns. After reading your review, it’s one I’m going to purchase for sure. Thank you!!
Love these patterns , I have tried a couple of them. Just LOVE them
Love the BoHo Fingerless Gloves. My Granddaughter would love these!
I love this book. I just received a copy of it for my birthday, and have yet to start a project, but I am looking forward to making the Star Fruit Rug.
I love the idea of a boho crochet book. I noticed that all the patters were more for home decor and not boho style clothing, which was disappointing. I did however love the Mandalas pictured. I liked the fact that it has a technique section. It seems like a very well laid out book for beginners to advanced crocheters. Definatly a book that I’ll be looking for.
The Weekender Bag is amazing! I’ve never crocheted a bag before, but this one I might try as it really looks woven or like tapestry. Hopefully my bookstore carries this book. Thanks for the review!
LOVE THE COLORS+DESIGNS IN THIS BOOK SO MUCH! THANKS FOR SELECTING IT FOR REVIEW! NEAT CROCHET BOOK!
Wow some great inspiration, Love Boho Chic 🙂
So many fun, colorful projects! It’s just my style!
I love Boho 🙂
Thanks for the wonderful review on Boho. Love this style of craft.
Oooooh my goodness!!!! Amazing book!!! Added to my Wish List for sure!! Such great variety & cooool things to make! Gotta have it! lol Thanks for GREAT review!! 🙂
The colors are beautiful! I love the look of the mandalas, but am curious what you would use them for?
Love the blanket pictured. Any yarn person would probably have the yarn laying around to complete these projects. A great resource
There are so many great ideas and patterns in this book. It’s definitely going on my amazon wishlist!
These patterns bring me back to when I started crocheting in the 70’s. What is old is new again!
I really love this book. Want to make every item in this book. Unfortunately Wink isn’t here anymore to enjoy her succes…
What fantastic colourful designs. I might just have to pop out and buy a rainbow of yarns and have a go at some of them.
I just got this book and it is great. It is well written and the projects are really pretty

Being a child of the 60’s, this Boho is right up my alley. I really NEED this book! Thanks so much for including it in your latest contest! I never would have seen it otherwise. I feel like a winner already!
I really like the bright colors used and how well they all seem to go together – makes me happy! 🙂
I love the color combinations, the motifs and the wonderful ideas that so many skilled gals can come up with. I hope someday I will be able to design my own patterns
