Crochet World June 2010 is a sunny “Beach Blanket Bingo” issue filled with bright summer stitching!

The Winner’s Circle brings adorable Easy Baby Booties by Estelle Voelker — quick, charity-friendly designs with plain or ribbed cuffs. In Just Threads, Agnes Russell’s stunning Ocean Waves Doilies (17½" and 10½") capture the sea in thread. The Touch of Style features Kim Guzman’s elegant Beaded-Square Top with a graceful handkerchief hem. Michele Maks’ Denim Dust Catcher rug recycles old jeans into a shaggy treasure, while Debra Arch’s Seaside Memories set (Lighthouse, Dolphin, Starfish & Rope) makes perfect photo-album embellishments.

The Beach Blanket Bingo section delivers four fabulous afghans: the colorful Almost Preppy Plaid, puff-stitch Windmills, Pineapples Fringe-As-You-Go, and the cheerful Waves of Color Ripple. Patriotic stars & stripes projects and sweet baby designs round out this perfect summer issue!
