Hooked for Life

“Temple takes an honest assessment of her obsession with hook and yarn, and most crochet fans will see a bit of themselves on every page.” —Crochet Today!

As the first humorous essay collection available specifically for crocheters, Hooked for Life offers more than forty-five skein-and-hook-infused anecdotes, along with a brief (but by no means complete) history of crochet. Delving into such topics as why crocheting and knitting are “not the same thing!” and whether the center-pull skein is a modern convenience or an urban legend, crocheters will finally encounter a book that knowingly, and humorously, celebrates their craft.

With three fun crochet patterns included as a bonus and tons of hilarious truths about the hook, Hooked for Life just might vie for crocheters’ time and quite possibly lure them away from current WIPs (works in progress).
