Twenty To Make
- Crocheted Flowers Jan Ollis has designed twenty different flowers, & each one is accompanied by an alternative in a different colour scheme. Full crochet instructions are given for each flower, together with lists of the materials & equipment needed. Each design is simply photographed so that crocheters can see the design clearly, & is also shown in a sumptuous styled photograph, showing the beautiful possibilities of the finished pieces, including brooches, & embellishments on hats, bags, sweaters, place mats, cushions, scarves & even shoes. About the Author Jan Ollis comes from a family of crafters & cannot remember a time when she was not creating something. Great Aunt Mabel taught her to crochet more years ago than she cares to remember, making 'granny square' blankets for a local hospital. After completing a degree in Fashion & Textile Design & working in a range of textile & non-textile related jobs, Jan started Chi-Chi Moi
- a small business making accessories in hand knitting & crochet. One successful early product was a flower corsage, which was so popular Jan made & sold 800 (with help from her family & friends). Jan lives in Somerset, UK with her partner Ben & has two grown-up children, Dominic & Milly.
