"I'm new to paper crafts but I think this necklace is soooo pretty! I love the touch of gold on the edge of the flower's petals."

"This is such a pretty wreath and the fact that it lights up just adds the perfect finishing touch!"

"This could be easily done on the plastic rings that are part of a milk or juice bottle cap. You can make them in different sizes according to the ring size. They will be so cute strung on fishing line and hung in windows, on the tree, all over the house. An easy craft you can work on them as you sit and relax or when traveling in a vehicle. Dozens can be made for under five dollars."

"As an avid reader I think this is an adorable ornament. I can't stand the thought of cutting up a book though. I can see it is a good avenue for recycling an older paperback that has been read and is no longer viable as a form of reading entertaining. I also think this would be cute cut out in angel or ball form. What shape would you make?"

"That's a lot simpler to make than it looks at first. I almost passed it by because it looked too hard to put together, but I'm glad I didn't! I am inspired to even try to make one from straw, as she mentions. I think it would be fragile but beautiful."

Not sure what do do with those random yarn scraps you keep holding on to? Now you have an excuse to use them up and create an adorable Christmas craft at the same time. Each of the 20 designs feature in Mini Christmas Crochet is completely adorable and perfect for the holidays.

These teeny tiny Christmas decorations will help you spread Christmas cheer all year long. Each of these projects can be hung on your tree as an ornament or left to stand on it's own as a display piece. You can also give them away to a friend or family member. You can use red, green or white yarn, but this is certainly not a requirements. In fact, the author of this book, Val Pierce, suggests using up yarn scraps for these projects.

The book begins with a simple introduction and a section called "Hints and Tips." Here you'll find a breakdown of materials, measurements and crochet techniques. There is also a section that explains terminology for both American and British crocheters. Once you've learned the basics, you can start working on the adorable projects!

Most importantly, you will find a variety of diverse tutorials. If you like the look of traditional Christmas ornaments, you can create a miniature stocking (p. 16) or a snowflake (p. 14). Kids will love the cute little crocheted penguin (p. 22) and a tiny reindeer (p. 18). Each pattern includes color photos, a materials list, measurements and step-by-step instructions.

If you like to crochet and want to make cute ornaments and decorative crafts for the holiday season, then you'll want to get your hands on a copy of Mini Christmas Crochet. It's never too early to start crocheting for the holidays!
