If you love to color and you love to crochet, you need this free ebook of crochet-themed coloring pages! 4 Inspiring Crochet Coloring Pages for Adults was designed by Andee Graves of Mama’s 2 Hands and is available for free on Favecrafts.

Crochet meets coloring

My friend Andee (I love being able to say that!) is a brilliant crochet designer, and an exceptionally talented artist as well. She combined both these talents into this book of 4, beautifully detailed, crochet coloring pages. Color beautiful flowers and squares, an assortment of crochet tools, and a fun “Crochet Rocks” page.

Coloring pages with actual crochet patterns!

2 of these coloring pages include charted patterns, along with a drawing of the actual crocheted piece. There’s a chart for the flower motif, and one for the crochet squares. These are complete patterns, that really do produce the motifs shown.

With so much detail, I was completely absorbed in coloring these crochet designs. On the squares, I found myself coloring in rounds as though I were crocheting. I went back and forth between the charted pattern and one of the finished squares, “crocheting” it in my mind as I colored it.

Only print the pages you need

I chose to color the squares and the Crochet Rocks page for this review. I’m sure I will also be coloring the other pages at some point. It’s nice to be able to print out only the pages I want to color, when I am ready to color them. Because the coloring pages are printable, you can choose your paper too. A matte paper that’s slightly thicker than normal copy paper is a good choice, particularly if you plan to use markers.

Experiment with colors

Having multiple images of the same motif gave me a chance to try some different color combinations. I went bold with colors the Crochet Rocks page, and explored some gradients with the squares. The squares turned out really well, so I cut them out and saved them for a future project. Maybe I’ll turn them into coasters, or a tray, or a box. I’m not sure what or when yet, but I know I’ll use them somehow, and I’ll show you when I do.
