The Review
A Bit About the Author
I "met" Olena on Instagram, where her adorable patterns caught my eye! So I'm super excited to share her first book with all of you today! Here's her author blurb:
"Olena is a crochet designer and the founder of her blog, GoldenLucyCrafts. She discovered her passion for handmade items at a young age while growing up in Ukraine. Inspired by the beautiful creations made by her mother, who taught her how to crochet, Olena developed a deep love for the craft.
In 2012, Olena designed her very first crochet pattern and has been creating unique pieces ever since.
The name GoldenLucyCrafts is a loving tribute to her early years of designing, during which her loyal Golden Retriever, Lucy, was often by her side.
Today, Olena lives in the beautiful Pacific Northwest with her husband, their son, and their current Golden Retriever, Hazel.
Her first book, “Crochet Snow Globes”, invites readers to create a variety of snow globes for celebration across every season - ranging from the classic Christmas design to a cheerful pumpkin globe for Halloween and a romantic heart globe for Valentine’s Day."
Let's take a closer look at her new book!
Inside
"Bring the enchanting world of snow globes to life with your crochet hook!
Snow globes are traditionally cherished Christmas keepsakes, but why limit the magic to one season? This book expands the concept and invites you to crochet a variety of unique snow globes for holidays and occasions throughout the entire year!
Inside, you will find 13 crochet snow globe patterns, featuring designs for major holidays like Christmas, Valentine’s Day, Easter, and Halloween. Plus, you'll find globes for graduation and other special themes.
These snow globe projects are perfect for adding charm to your home décor or for creating memorable handmade gifts that will be treasured for years to come."
It's about 80 pages long, and includes a section on materials as well as the stitches featured in this book.
The patterns are all made with easy-to-find yarns, all #4 worsted acrylics. The patterns themselves are well written and easy to follow, and the large full color photos are super helpful.
One thing I really like about Olena's book is how she formatted the pages. The letters are big and easy to read - no tiny cramped fonts here! She has also included colorwork charts where appropriate!
Overall, Crochet Snow Globes is a wonderful way to collect 13 super fun patterns to make and display year-round! Olena's work is so fun and festive - great for home and gifting, and even craft fairs!
