Description

Basic crochet techniques to bring your illustrated characters to life

Start by getting to know Leire Villar a little better and the work of other crochet and Amigurumi artists who inspire her.

Next, Leire tells you about the materials and tools available on the market and shows you how everyday objects can be a great source of inspiration.

Learn the basic crochet techniques and how to build up from crocheting flat to working with volume, until you master complex shapes. Discover how to change color and correctly read a pattern.

Once you are familiar with the technique, Leire shares her creative process with you: how she gets inspired, how to make sketches, and how to use different elements to personalize dolls or amigurumi projects.

Finally, Leire shows you the many different possibilities that crochet offers, including working with recycled materials, advanced-level designs such as jacquard, and soft circuits.
