Magazine

Simply Crochet is full of creative ideas for anyone who loves - or would love to learn - crochet. Crochet is a wonderfully versatile craft with endless possibilities of creative things to make. Inside you will find beautiful designs for the home, fashionable accessories to wear and gift ideas for all occasions. From lampshade covers to shawls, toys to blankets and gadget cosies to cardigans, Simply Crochet is a must-buy for creative crafters looking for new things to make. With clear, easy-to-follow instructions to ensure the best possible results every time, you'll be hooked on handmade from the very first page!***Please note: This digital version of the magazine does not include the covermount items you would find on the printed newsstand copies. ***

Simply Crochet • As we look ahead to autumn, we’re finding extra-cosy makes to work on, such as this chunky Tunisian crochet blanket and cushion set from our supplement this issue. Find your own comfort project inside…

Ten years of crochet! • I can’t believe it – Simply Crochet has been on shelves for an entire decade! We’re celebrating our 10th anniversary this issue and are taking a look back at all that’s changed – and stayed the same – since we first came out in 2013. Check out our feature on page 64, then get to work on some of our timeless projects. I think Hannah Cross’ cardi on page 49 and Lisa Hendry’s cross-body bag on page 74 will still be in style when our mag celebrates its 20th anniversary! And please share your makes on Instagram tagged #sctreblemaker, or on our Facebook group, Simply Crochet SCtreblemakers. We love to see them!
