In 2007 Search Press launched the innovative Twenty to Make series. Ten years and over 2 million sales later, we’re celebrating its success with a relaunch, series design and 6 new mini-series – Twenty to Knit, Twenty to Crochet, Twenty to Stitch, Twenty to Craft, Twenty to Papercraft and Twenty to Sugarcraft. Still superb value at just £4.99, and in the same pocket-sized format with full colour throughout, these books will continue to delight you and will fly off bookshelves the world over.

Novelty crocheters will love this collection of beautiful and realistic flowers to crochet. Jan Ollis has designed twenty different flowers, and each one is accompanied by an alternative in a different colour scheme. Full crochet instructions are given for each flower, together with lists of the materials and equipment needed. Each design is simply photographed so that you can see the design clearly, and is also shown in a sumptuous styled photograph, showing the beautiful possibilities of the finished pieces, including brooches, and embellishments on hats, bags, sweaters, place mats, cushions, scarves and even shoes.

Jan Ollis comes from a family of crafters and cannot remember a time when she was not creating something. Great Aunt Mabel taught her to crochet more years ago than she cares to remember, making ‘granny square’ blankets for a local hospital. After completing a degree in Fashion and Textile Design and working in a range of textile and non-textile related jobs, Jan started Chi-Chi Moi - a small business making accessories in hand knitting and crochet. One successful early product was a flower corsage, which was so popular Jan made and sold 800 (with help from her family and friends). Jan lives in Somerset, UK with her partner Ben and has two grown-up children, Dominic and Milly.
