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.

Good for exfoliating
Color: Beige (4 Packs)
These are great for saving and using soap slivers. I can't stand to throw out something useful but once they get too small they're hard to hold onto. I had a mesh bag but it started to come apart and I thought these would hold up better. These bags are thick and sturdy. They're a little stiff at first but softened up quickly. They're great for exfoliating. The only change I would like to see is the wood closing bead changed to a locking clip as it slides open all the time.

Great product!
Color: Beige (8 Packs)
I buy handmade soap from a local soap maker, but I’ve always had trouble with it lasting—if I leave it in a soap dish, it never dries properly and melts away too quickly. I used to use loofah socks, but they were frustrating: the knots wouldn’t stay tied and they tore apart easily. I decided to give these a try, and I’m impressed! I had a couple of concerns going in. First, I wasn’t sure they’d fit the larger-sized handmade bars I use—but they do! It’s a snug fit at first, which can make lathering a bit tricky, but after one or two uses it softens up and starts to lather beautifully—honestly, better than the mesh loofahs I’ve used. The design is thoughtful: the knot stays secure, and the bead keeps the soap from slipping out—both huge improvements over other products I’ve tried. The biggest surprise? The exfoliation. It’s effective without being harsh, even on sensitive areas. My skin felt softer than it ever did with sugar or salt scrubs. That’s an unexpected bonus I didn’t even realize I needed! Highly recommend—especially if you’re using handmade or natural soaps and want to make them last longer.

Great product for the price, would buy again!
Color: Beige (4 Packs)
Great bags. There is a ball to pull the top right but it slides back open so I just tied a knot in it but idk how I'll get it out to put more soap in. Otherwise a great product! Glad I bought them! Color is neutral, lather is good, very durable, easy to use, could be a little rougher (in my opinion) it's on the soft side, functions great besides top coming open, very durable!

Small to big soaps, not exfoliating
Color: Beige (4 Packs)
My soaps haven’t slipped out. I use dove bars and smaller round soap bars in them and I haven’t had any issues. They leave a room around my dove soap bars. I’m glad I can bar small to large soaps in this bag. I haven’t need to tie a knot on the end like I often need to do. They feel like a soft scrub on my body, not exfoliating. I enjoy my tan colors.
