Hello bug lovers and crochet adventurers! Grab your research equipment (magnifying glass, flask of tea, crochet hook, scissors and yarn) and follow us into a world full of magic and science, a microcosm of tiny creatures and big dreams! In this book you will find not only a charming selection of crochet patterns to create scrabbling beetles, beautiful bugs and fluttering butterfly crochet amigurumi, but also a wonderful story to read out loud and ponder on: a tale about growing up; accepting change and the power of dreams. Watch tiny creatures hatching from their eggs, look on as they munch through a green world, and be astonished at their marvelous transformations when they finally slip out of their cocoons. The wings and hats are interchangeable so you can use the patterns in this book to create new outfits for your little insect friends. Give your caterpillar a new set of wings for every day of the week, or cover your beetle in the most colourful wingsuits. Be inspired by nature to make creatures of your own creation. It's a great little world full of possibilities. We wish you lots of fun on your journey of discovery and learning!

Scheepjes YARN Bookazine 12 Romance to your bookshelves.
Creative hearts are sure to be indulged with this remarkable issue.
YARN Bookazine 13 Wadden features 17 modern crochet and knitting patterns inspired by the land, sea and animals of the region. The colour palette features bright shades reflecting the berries and lighthouses found scattered across the Dutch Wadden islands, with more neutral colours taken from the beaches, dunes, mudflats and waters to offer a soft contrast. Featuring a range of yarns and fibres, from crisp cottons to cosy pure wool, the projects are made in a selection of crochet and knitting techniques. An additional latch hook rug design completes the selection of patterns.
The new Scheepjes YARN Bookazine 14 Expression is all about creative self-expression. Expression gives limitless possibilities and allows you to reinvent yourself or break new ground. Expression is freedom!
The Expression theme is explored in YARN Bookazine 14 in four chapters: Flow, Form, Playfulness and Movement, with designs ranging from beautiful clothing items, unique home decorations and even to a quirky sea snail cuddly toy. The projects combine multiple knitting and crochet techniques and are often embellished with beadwork and embroidery for added flair. The designs are unisex and suitable for most shapes and sizes, making them inclusive. The colour palette is bright, vibrant and cheerful and the contrast with dark and soft tones gives the designs depth and style. With a wide range of yarns and fibres, including luxurious Alpaca and Merino, wastewater-produced Cotton yarns and a 100% recycled blend, these 16 crochet and knitting projects allow anyone to express their unique personality. The Expression theme is further explored in interviews with artists and bloggers who are inspired by the shape and movement of their materials. The interviews investigate drape and how expression influences acrobatics, dance and choreography. The beautiful and dynamic photography of YARN Bookazine 14 is also full of expression. For instance, many of the models are professional dancers, and the images capture the designs in true motion.
YARN Bookazine is a luxury collector's item for the crafts, photography and inspiration lover. It features a wide range of crochet and knitting patterns for both beginner and advanced crafters. In this lookbook, eye-catching photography and beautiful crochet and knitting projects are interspersed with interesting interviews and the inspiring vision of the Creative Director of Scheepjes, Simy. The second part of the YARN Bookazine features clearly written patterns, often accompanied by charts as well.

In YARN Bookazine 15 Metamorphosis, the theme of growth, change and awakening is represented through chapters inspired by insects that change form through the seasons. The 16 crochet and knitting patterns highlight how fibres and techniques can transform into a range of garments and accessories, such as airy tops and delicate shawls.
Playful homeware and toys offer bursts of colour to brighten the spaces where many of us felt ‘cocooned’. Embroidery enhances many designs, bringing our attention to the details of nature. The theme is further reflected in artist interviews and informative features, including a glimpse of how Scheepjes is supporting biodiversity.
