It Girl Crochet is a collection of stylish accessories that reflect current fashion trends. Crochet has become increasingly popular on the runway and with mass-retailers, and It Girl Crochet offers a well-curated selection of chic and wearable items one might find (and happily pay for) in trendy boutiques

The projects in the book are organized by three styles: Art Nouveau, Bohemian, and Mod. The crochet accessories include hats, bags, scarves, mittens and fingerless mitts, belts, shawlettes, socks, and other wardrobe essentials. The designs use basic crochet techniques as well as more unusual techniques such as intarsia, Tunisian crochet, tapestry crochet, beading, appliqué, and join-as-you-go motifs. The projects range from advanced beginner to advanced-intermediate. Along with detailed instructions, many of the projects include stitch diagrams.

Brief sidebars accompany many of the projects and illuminate the trends, personalities, and art and architectural movements that inspired the pieces.
