Latch Hook: 12 Projects for the Modern Maker by Heidi Gustad, now available!

After months of patient waiting, I am glad to finally say that my first book is now available for purchase! Right here! For now it’s available exclusively from my publisher, and as the wheels of publishing continue to slowly turn, the book should be on store shelves in 2021. You can get it in either paperback or digital format.

I mean, I’m more than a little biased, but I think I managed to pull of a beginner-accessible collection of latch hook designs with a contemporary twist and literal smile in some cases. To refresh your memory or just show you how much fun this brand new take on the classic craft of latch hook is, here’s the book unboxing and project preview video to give you a look at just how much value you’re getting with this book.

Latch Hook: 12 Projects for the Modern Maker retails for $12.99 for a paperback. It includes 12 patterns (step by step instructions plus charts) on top of 16 additional pages of instructional guides walking you though how to make a latch hook masterpiece, from knots to hanging, even if it’s your first time (or first time in a long time) latch hooking.

Oh look! Latch Hook: 12 Projects for the Modern Maker.

C’mon, I know my people. (Hi. 👋 )

A number of y’all have emailed and DM’d me about latch hooking as kids and being pumped to try it again with this book. And what’s not to be excited about? There’s a rainbow denim jacket back patch in here for goodness’ sake! And a giant, furry egg! Join me for an invigorating craft that will rekindle your inner crafty child – honestly, it will take you bake in a way that is frankly rather comforting these days.
