Accessories remain the most popular go-to crochet projects, and many yarn stores find one-skein projects their bread-and-butter. Cost-conscious crocheters are often looking for projects to make on a budget, or ways to use stash yarn. However, single-skein projects also limit the crocheter in what she can knit and in her colour choices. Author Sharon Zientara has curated a collection that makes use of one, two, or three skeins of yarns, offering colour play and larger projects. Single-skein projects may be simple and quick to crochet, budget-friendly, or may offer a beautiful way to use a special skein of luxury yarn. Projects that take two or three skeins offer larger or more complex patterns and colourwork, while still keeping the investment of time and money low.
