We’re always on the lookout for our next crochet project – but how about using your favourite yarn craft to make a masterpiece in miniature?

Micro crochet is the latest crochet trend sweeping the internet, with craft lovers from across the world sharing their super-cute (and tiny!) projects.

If you’d like something new after making a series of granny squares, or having stitched your own crochet vest, why not try micro crochet instead?

Most micro crochet projects involve using a super-fine crochet needle, usually between 0.5mm and 1mm. A lot of micro crochet lovers use sewing thread for their tiny creations – that’s how small the stitches are! But many of the stitches are exactly the same as those you mastered when you learned how to crochet.

We’ve rounded up of favourite micro crochet makes from crafters across the globe to inspire you – you’re guaranteed to find your next project in miniature.

Happy crafting!
