Uncommon Crochet
January/February 2010 California Country magazine
By Kate Campbell
With an estimated 38 million people knowing how to knit or crochet, there probably are more than enough “granny squares” to go around. Uncommon Crochet, by Julie Armstrong Holetz, offers a whole new twist on some great old yarns and materials—natural sheep and alpaca wools, leathers, twine and wire—to create contemporary designs that will delight and amaze. 75 full-color technique photos. $19.95 in paperback from Ten Speed Press.
