Creative Modern Crochet For The Home: Stunning Projects Using Simple Techniques

Brighten up your home with 12 inspiring modern crochet projects from popular crafter Lucy Djevdet (craftingbylucy).

Featuring fresh designs and contemporary textures, this book contains design-led, sustainable projects that will help you ‘make do’ rather than ‘buy new’.

These 12 practical projects, made from a range of contemporary textures including raffia, jute and macramé cord as well as yarn, will spruce up your home and your mood! Fresh, bold and functional, there are homeware patterns for all crochet abilities, and every technique needed is shown clearly step by step.

  • Get organized with a stylish and practical hanging fruit basket, created from macramé cord and designed to keep your produce fresh;
  • Snuggle up with a cozy blanket and comfy pillow, made with chunky feather stitch for a trendy geometric finish;
  • Use sturdy raffia yarn to create on-trend storage baskets in four different sizes – perfect for use in any room of the house;
  • Create a decorative doormat using jute twine for a practical, hard-wearing finish;
  • Update an old vase with a contemporary cover, create a new shade for an old lamp and transform used tins into colourful hanging herb planters.

For a stunningly textured, multi-craft finish, several of the projects incorporate touches of weaving and macramé, both of which are also clearly explained.

Lucy's stylish designs support a sustainable lifestyle and will inject colour and joy into any home setting.

An ingenious combination of crochet, macramé, and weaving makes these 12 home projects pop. Known online as craftingbylucy, UK-based crochet designer Djevdet does into great detail on up-front matters in her first book, with a review of materials and tools, in-depth looks at stitch anatomy and special stitches, and notes about the intricacies of related-to-crochet activities. The dozen unique projects include a raffia lamp shade, a versatile and sturdy jute rug, and a blanket. High-quality color photographs of both individual steps and finished products are included, along with instructions and the usual features, such as skill level, gauge/tension, approximate time needed, and making up. Many of the yarns specified are higher-end, and substitutions may not be readily available. Fans of any of the crafts Djevdet combines here may need to add another hobby to the list!

In contrast to most crochet handbooks’ focus on clothing or bedding, the projects in this fresh debut guide from Djevdet show how to make a variety of household goods, including a lampshade, a mirror frame, and hanging planters. An overview of crochet fundamentals explains such basic techniques as slip stitches and double crochets, as well as more advanced stitches, such as crab (single crochet stitches worked left to right) and moss (a combination of chain and single crochet stitches). The projects employ numerous fibers and weights. For instance, the feather stitch pillow is made with super bulky acrylic yarn, and the lidded storage baskets require light worsted raffia and cotton. Several incorporate other crafting methods, such as the hanging fruit baskets, which use a macramé cord to join the containers to the wooden ring they dangle from, and the crocheted wall hanging, which involves some weaving. The relatively sparse guidance on macramé and weaving might leave some readers feeling challenged by the projects that use these techniques, but the explanation of how to crochet is comprehensive and the creative designs show that the craft is good for more than scarves and blankets. This stands out amid the crowded field of crochet manuals.

For those who aspire to create handmade home decor with a contemporary vibe, regular Inside Crochet designer Lucy Djevdet's new book is the perfect starting point. From stylish storage to decorative pieces, each of the 12 designs has a fresh, modern look combined with practicality too. 

many projects focus on sustainability, including a reusable market bag, a clever project to upcycle a lampshade using colourful raffia, and turning old food tins into herb pots with hanging planters. Although these projects are designed to be beginner-friendly, Lucy often incorporates other crafts such as macramé and weaving, using interesting materials such as twine or cord - with all stitches and techniques explained in step-by-step visual guides. 

For those who love to keep their home organised - or aspire to! - this book has some stylish ideas for keeping things tidy, many of which look like pieces from high-street brands. We love the combination of hessian fabric, jute and garden twine to create hardwearing hanging garden storage - perfect for stashing plant markers, seed packets and other small items. We also love the fashion-forward rug with scalloped edges and a pop of pink, the colourful wall hanging that combines tapestry crochet with weaving, and the cute macramé-inspired mirror frame incorporating wooden beading.

This is a gorgeous collection of clever, on-trend pieces to bring a fresh look to your home this spring.

Foam Mattress NEEDs Foam Pillows
Color: Blue-ice Plus, Size: King(Pack of 2), Color: Blue-ice Plus, Size: King(Pack of 2)
10 stars!! Quality foam, structure & price. Best bang for my buck.    HRV, readiness & total sleep score metrics increased drastically this week.  See screenshot :) Support: Molds and cushions every crevice under my neck and above shoulders. So comfy  Size: Adjustable loft but king length is perfect to hug and rest your head.  Love love love. The 1st 2 nights were uncomfortable with pillow as is, first night I was up at 3am half asleep pulling foam out but wasn't enough. The second night at 2am I pulled out more stuffing. I was getting frustrated..  my Oura ring showed both nights I was awake every hour.  Not good.  Before the 3rd night I pulled enough to fill the bag the 2 pillows arrived in. Boom -8hrs sleep and for the first time ii years I achieved 17% Deep sleep.  Huge. Weight: Perfect weight with adjustment. Squishy and molds to b the contour of my neck and shoulders Softness: Like the baby bear.. just right.   Comfort: Very comfortable after removing 30% foam in both pillows. I actually now have enough to make a 3rd pillow, replace old foam, or adjust OGs, Still to early to measure.  If you have a foam mattress that contours your body but not your head you'll end up with neck and/or back pain from head being elevated- not sinking/molding the body into a foam mattress.

These are not sized correctly - beware
Color: Blue-ice Plus, Size: King(Pack of 2), Color: Blue-ice Plus, Size: King(Pack of 2)
Edit: I was going to return these pillows but the seller contacted me and offered a full refund due to the size issue without having to send the pillows back. I am happy with this and happy to keep them on a spare queen size bed as they really are nice pillows. Just the wrong size. pros: they are a nice pillow and the cooling feature is really great, and you can adjust to your liking cons: absolutely wrong size. Ordered King, tag says king, all measurements on listing and tag say 20x36, in reality they are more like 20x30. Definitely Queen pillows being sold as King. I did not see any reviews at first about size issues but after I got these and did a search it does look like others have had the same problem. A shame, would have given them a great review if they were the correct size

Really Good Cooling Pillows for Sleeping
Color: Blue-ice Plus, Size: Queen(Pack of 2), Color: Blue-ice Plus, Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
These cooling pillows are very soft and provide excellent support for your head and neck. They are adjustable by taking our the stuffing if you need them to be more flat or less firm. The look great and comes in a pack of two which is a great value. During use, I did notice they have great shape retention and it does not take them long to return to their fluffy full shape. I am a hot sleeper and these do keep your head cool - just be aware using a pillow cover does reduce the cool ability but this allows you to adjust for weather like during winters to add a pillow case for extra warmth. Very happy with this purchase and got a second set to replace my old pillows.
