Cool Crochet? Yes, It's Possible
An old-fashioned favorite gets a sassy spin in bright colors and mod patterns, bringing homey warmth to modern rooms
Houzz Contributor. Fresh out of journalism school, I fell into decorating media and immediately discovered a new passion. An Atlanta native, I spent several years as an editor for Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles magazine before making the leap to national publications and websites such as Houzz, Better Homes and Gardens and Southern Accents. I live in Birmingham, Alabama, with my husband and son, who’ve gotten used to coming home and finding the furniture rearranged. When I'm not dragging case goods across the floor, I enjoy good food and wine, college football, music of all kinds, and traveling.

But with a savvy eye for design, crocheted accents can be a surprisingly stylish way to add color, texture and pattern to a space. Want proof? Take a look at the examples below.
