Learn to Waterfall Crochet Book Review
Learn to Waterfall Crochet includes 6 practice patterns that you can crochet to master this new technique.
The Waterfall Crochet technique will teach you how to add new yarn colors mid-row, without having to carry any unused / dropped colors of yarn behind your work. Instead, you will use chained spaces to create a lattice in the areas that you want to place your other yarn color and then return to those sections in future rows to add your other colors.
I recommend you read through the Waterfall Crochet Appendix and Tips section which is included at the end of the book (page 31) as it outlines how to read the patterns in the book and how to complete the new Waterfall Crochet Stitches.
The book also includes a 14-minute Learn to Waterfall Crochet Video which is added to your Annie’s Bookshelf under the “My Videos” tab when you purchase the book.
Waterfall Crochet Appendix & Tips
The Waterfall Crochet Appendix & Tips section begins on page 31 and includes explanations and step-by-step diagrams and images for the stitches referenced.
Examples of Stitches Used
W5st
W indicates you will use the Waterfall technique
5 indicates the number of rows the st will be worked over (i.e. 5 rows)
st indicates how the bottom of the stitch will be anchored (it is being anchored in a stitch)
W2cs
W indicates you will use the Waterfall technique
2 indicates the number of rows the st will be worked over (i.e. 2 rows)
cs indicates it will be anchored in a chain space
The patterns are written in US crochet terms. The eBook is in full color, with full color images. Bold type and italics are used throughout to emphasize important headings and notes.

I love how the Waterfall Crochet Technique allows you to add additional colors to your project without needing to change your yarn colors mid-row. I think this would be a fun technique to use and apply in crochet. I especially love the Diagonal Baby Blanket and the Table Runner patterns.

Another crochet technique that I’m willing to try. Thanks!
I’m always looking for new and interesting pattern stitches to crochet. I think this is something that looks fairly easy to make, while making the project look more difficult and intricate at the end. Score one for me!
Whoa! looks like a really different pattern…maybe fun too. Good choices to try too.
Wow, that looks like a really cool technique, I need to learn that!
Oops, I meant Lap throws for the Family!
I like to see a review of the Afghans for the Family or the Seamless Crochet books.

I would love to learn how to crochet socks. This book looks very helpful.
You’ve done a great job with this book review. Looks like there are some awesome stitches to learn.
My vote for next Annie’s book to review is 5o afghan stitches, toy food, or lap throws for the family.
How about Shaped Afghans Crochet Pattern Book? Would love to get that.
