The Crochet Crowd: Inspire, Create & Celebrate

Michael Sellick learned crochet as a fourteen-year-old and, noticing how useful the hobby was at helping him cope with life’s difficulties, continued as he grew older. In 2008, he turned to YouTube to share crochet tutorials with the world, and soon enough, he was amassing viewers. Today, his YouTube channel has over a million followers. In The Crochet Crowd, Sellick and his partner, Daniel Zondervan, discusses their crochet journey and share crochet patterns for projects like place mats, winter hats, scarves, and blankets and wraps.

While the stories Sellick and Zondervan recount about their crochet journey may be of more interest to those familiar with their online community, the patterns in the book will likely be of broader interest. The full-color images of completed crochet projects accompanying the patterns will spark readers’ creativity and motivation, and the suggested materials list for each project will guide them toward the right products. Armed with both visual symbol charts and written patterns, readers of this book will be ready and eager to start their next project.
