DescriptionAn inspiring collection of repeat crochet patterns, with both small and large geometric motifs, designed to not only gently release the reader's creativity but also relax the mind. By focusing on the repetitive rhythms of creating a crochet piece, stitch by stitch, the reader will unconsciously slow their breathing and heart rate, raise their serotonin levels and become calm.

The act of creating is known to have a healing effect on the mind, which has been harnessed by art therapists – and, more recently, the publishers of adult colouring books. Add to this the impact of the other therapies involved in crocheting – colour therapy, energy therapy, and touch therapy – and crochet becomes a really powerful tool in reducing stress and increasing feelings of well-being. Plus, the reader will have made a lovely, one-of-a-kind piece at the end of it. It’s time for readers to pick up their crochet hook – and put down their cares!

Giovanni Civardi shares his expert advice on recreating beautiful statues in pencil with lifelike detail, observing closely human anatomy, form and structure.

During frequent trips to France and Denmark, Civardi put on one-man exhibitions of this work and pursued his interest in studying the relationship between medical anatomy and the human form as depicted by the artist. His experience gained from teaching anatomy, life drawing and portraiture in schools and institutions over many years has led to the publication of numerous books in which Civardi's experiences are brought into focus.
