Boycraft: Loads of Things to Make For and With Boy (and Girls)
by Sara Duchars, Sarah Marks
Boys like making stuff. Actually, boys love making stuff. Not just model boats, paper airplanes, bows and arrows and catapults – although they love that too. Boys like knitting; scarves, hats, spiders and monsters. Boys like sewing – especially if they can use the sewing machine. They like cutting and sticking and gluing and sawing and hammering. However, sometimes people – both boys and their parents – need to be reassured that it’s okay for boys to make things.
Boycraft does exactly that.
Boycraft is packed full of projects to make for and with boys. It will be illustrated with a mix of photographs and graphic-style illustrations.
Sara Duchars and Sarah Marks founded Buttonbag in 2005, a young innovative company breathing new life into old crafts by updating them in a fresh, contemporary way. They have graduated from a stall at London's Greenwich market to a network of more than 20.
