Crochet for Kids by Franziska Heidenreich

With this book, kids (and tweens) can learn to crochet accessories and toys all by themselves. Simple, easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions and photos show basic crochet techniques and for the challenging parts of each project.

The patterns begin simply, with chains used as shoelaces, and build to relatively advanced projects such as afghans and stuffed toys.

Twenty-nine projects (12 beginner, 11 intermediate, and 6 advanced) include friendship bracelets, berets and caps, embellishments for shirts and scarves, fingerless mitts, messenger bags, and more. Perfect!
