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!

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!

Kim Barclay says
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!!

Ursula F says
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.
Teresa Miller says
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.
Michelle B says
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!
