Get the vintage

look...without

the vintage aggravation

Everybody loves a great vintage find on eBay or in

an antique shop. Unfortunately, everybody also

knows that for every great vintage find, there are

dozens of "vintage" items that are really just "old

and kind of dirty." Ick. Now readers can make their

very own "vintage" home accents, accessories,

gifts, and more with Vintage Crochet , the book that

brings together the best in brand-spankin' new

designs for great nostalgic projects. Author Susan Cropper gathers the finest crochet designs into four

sections: Nostalgic Home, modern-retro accents;

Lazy Summers, hot styles for picnics and patios;

Boho Babes, hip fashions like a sheath dress, a

shrug, and a beaded necklace; and Gorgeous Gifts,

nifty presents. This is vintage as it was meant to be: fun, amusing, nostalgic... and really really clean.
