Crochet Madder Triangles features 8 exciting crochet motif projects, including blankets, shawls and scarves.
All the projects are designed using variations of a simple triangle crochet motif, as such the book focuses on colour and shape rather than texture and technique.

Crochet Madder Triangles was written in 2013 as pattern support for yarns dyed by Amanda's indie hand dyed yarn company - The Natural Dye Studio (NDS). Madder was Amanda's favourite natural dye, it is the orange/red colour used for Persian carpets. All the projects in the book (except for Icarus) contain at least one Madder (orange) triangle.

The patterns contain detailed colour recommendations, they contain both written and charted motif instructions and in both US and UK terms. There are simple step by step construction charts which will help you through the entire process, and several colour variation charts for each design.

Crochet Madder Triangles was originally published as an e-book in 2013 as a pdf e-book.
