Book Review – Crocheted Abode A La Mode by Twinkie Chan

Twinkie Chan is well known for her scrumptious food designs – if you can eat it, she’s probably crocheted it. She has definitely outdone herself in her new book “Crocheted Abode A La Mode.” This is the first time I can honestly say that a crochet pattern book made me hungry!
The book has separate sections with fun and imaginative patterns for different areas of your home. The Kitchen & Dining section invites you to sit on a Cherry Pie Seat Cushion, or wash your dishes with a Fried Egg Dishcloth.
You can organize your office with a Bread Loaf Letter Organizer, and write those important notes with a corn dog pen…and that TV dinner is the perfect place to store your tablet, of course.
What child wouldn’t love to scrub up with an Ice Cream Cone Shower Mitt and step out onto a loopy Bubble Gum Bath Mat? I think I know more than a few adults who would love that too!
My favorite patterns in the whole book though, are all in the Living & Lounging section. I can absolutely see myself leaning back into a Banana Split Throw Pillow, with my feet propped up on a Giant Donut Floor Pouf, while sniffling over some sappy movie and pulling tissues out of a cheeseburger.
If you want to add a little color and whimsy to your home, or if you’re looking for a unique gift that’s sure to get a smile, you will find it in this book. And it’s all calorie free!
