This is a great book for anyone who would like to dip their toes into weaving, I chose this book for this reason as it is a craft I find interesting. The layout is very good for the learner, the text is clear and easy to understand. The projects are relatively simple, if a little basic but for the novice they are perfect. My Crocheted Home is a worthy addition to any aspiring craft library. My thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for an ARC of this book.

A nice selection of houseware crochet patterns that rely on a modern design aesthetic using Lion Brand Yarn. I especially liked the color ways author Baca featured in the photo examples. Directions appear clear for a practiced crochet enthusiast and resources are listed for those that may need additional instructions to get started in crochet basics. There are a lot of crochet books on the market, but this one stands out because these projects use traditional techniques with a modern and unique twist. There are a few macramé style items that may be inspired from the past, but the Wow Ottoman and the Triangle Wall Hanging lean more towards coastal grandmother than your average granny square.

My Crocheted Home : Hand-made baskets, pillows, throws, wall hangings, placemats, and more, This book includes 10 projects of varying difficulty and size. Aimed at beginner to intermediate. The instructions are easy to follow and photographs very good. My only slight disappointment was the projects themselves, I think I was hoping for something a bit more inspiring. But this is probably just a personal taste thing, and many other readers will love them.

I have used/followed multiple pattern books by this author and absolutely love her patterns! This specific book i was very interested in the interior decor especially the pillow and the wall hangings!

A nice collection of crochet patterns. I really like that there are plant related patterns in this book! The table runner and blanket are quite nice too. Nothing spectacular but I like the simplicity of the projects.

So many cute designs in this book! I’m midway through following the pattern for the triangle wall hanging and am so excited to be finished and be able to hang it on my wall. I fully intended to make the arrowwood throw as well as the crochet caddy. This is a great selection of diverse home creations. From what I’ve crocheted from the patterns so far and from the skimming I’ve done, the patterns are clear and easy to understand.
I do hope the final copy has some more photos or diagrams of the pieces in progress as the visual aid can help a lot.

For a person who loves to crochet and has for years, but has an issue reading patterns some of the time, this book is pretty good. I can understand the patterns. I also like how the writer has explained what stitches are counted in the pattern or not. Walks you through it especially if you're new to crochet and have basic knowledge. You should be able to follow these patterns quite easy.
Thanks NetGalley and the publisher for the advance ecopy.

Patterns are easy to follow. Photos are good. I think that the number of projects are small and they could be more interesting.

Patterns are thorough and modern with a variety of options for both beginner and intermediate. I have already started the “Granny Chevron Throw” which will be the perfect reading throw once it’s done. There are smaller projects too like the “Hanging Plant Basket” for times you just want to make a quick gift.

Firstly, thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC, very grateful to have received a copy in exchange for my review.
I really enjoyed reading through this pattern book! I thought the designs were great and the patterns themselves were easy to read and follow along. I also really enjoyed the photos of the items showcased throughout the book.
I love the concept of a book just for home items especially the items that are not so typical like the ottoman and throw caddy.
I think this will be a great good for someone to reach for and get inspired to make more crochet items for the home.

I’m a fan of Salena Baca’s crochet books, so I was so excited to see My Crocheted Home on NetGalley! This book is another winner, just as I suspected. It promises to deliver modern and functional patterns, and it delivers! There were no duds. The two throw blankets (the Arrowwood Throw and the Granny Chevron) are what I am most excited about, but I am a sucker for blankets. There are plenty of decor projects in here, too!
The instructions were clear, but I would note that explanations of certain stitches or how to join is not elaborated on, so very beginners will likely need to look at other resources to complete the projects. But there are plenty of free resources out there for that.
This was a really fun and cohesive collection with a modern twist on some old classics. I definitely look forward to decorating my home with these projects!
Thank you to NetGalley, the publisher, and the author for the opportunity to review a free eARC in exchange for an honest review!

This is the first crochet book I requested for review and I was lucky with this one. Even as a beginner and non-English speaker I see that the patterns are clear and not complicated. I liked many designs and would like to try them one day (once I buy a proper yarn), especially the throw, flower pot cover, table mat and pillowcase. As a whole the book is not long, it consists of 10 designs, but that's enough if your home needs a little bit of cosy touch. At the end there is a list of other crochet books that this author published and I would be interested in giving them a try.

This book contains crochet patterns for placemats, throws, baskets and other household items.
I loved the designs and the photos of the finished items and I look forward to trying to make these for my own home.
Thank you to NetGalley and Globe Pequot for my advanced e-copy in exchange for an honest review.

I uses to buy Selena Baca patterns on Etsy when I had a crochet business. He patterns are straightforward, and modern. I will definitely be hooking up the wall hanging!
Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the ARC.

I want to thank Netgalley and the author for gifting me the ebook.
Very cute crochet projects for around the house. They are more on the modern/contemporary side. But would be perfect for people who are looking to add some coziness to their apartment/dorm etc. The instructions seem easy to understand.

Small crochet book which includes 10 patterns; two blankets, a placemat, a wall hanging, an ottoman, and a few others. My favorite one is the triangle wall hanging, but I was most surprised by the crochet caddy, that is not something I had seen before.
The patterns are nice and come with written instruction and a few pictures. The instruction are clear, but for those who prefer crocheting by chart, be aware that there are none. There is also clear graphics for the assembly process.
This book is not for beginner, the pattern themselves don't seem too complicated, but there is no introduction on stitch and other process, which assume a prior knowledge. It does come with a stitch abbreviations glossary and a concise speciality stitches and techniques explanation but that's it.
Overall most patterns are relatively common, you could find similar thing in other pattern ressources, but its a nice compilation, with great instruction and pictures.

This is my first read by author Salena Baca and it definitely won't be my last!
This book contains 10 patterns specifically for homegoods. As a beginner crocheter, the instructions were very user friendly and makes the beautiful designs seem achieveable. The blankets were my favorite designs in the book, specifically the granny chevron throw. My only complaint is that there seem to be such few patterns and there are only two blankets in the book.
Thank you NetGalley for the ARC of this book!

These patterns are so versatile and cute, definitely will enjoy working on these patterns to decorate my home!

This book features beautiful home patterns that are easy to follow and fantastic for all skill levels. Patterns range from blankets to plant holders to throw pillows, and showcase beautiful texture in the majority of the patterns. The photos included are a fantastic resource while you create because they allow you to see where you’re headed! Thank you to NetGalley for allowing me early access to this.

First off, a huge thank you go Salena Baca and NetGalley!
I’ve recently gotten into crocheting and this book is PERFECT! I’m excited to make all 10 projects. The instructions are very informative. How Selena has organized each page is very helpful.. Knowing what type of yarn and length is so helpful. I am not great at guessing how much yarn I need of one color and I never have enough. This book isn’t a book for beginners who want a step by step process for basic knowledge or technique. However, you can easily learn that stuff on YouTube pretty fast and this is a fun book to give you more ideas!
