Awesome Book! March 8, 2008 16 out of 16 found this review helpful
I received this book a few days ago, and am still reading through it, because it is packed with so much useful information. Everything from the best stitch patterns for various items, to shaping garments, to selecting yarn, to fixing problems is covered. I love that the book even has a few mini-projects for the reader to try our new techniques. The book is also very well-organized, and the photography is lovely - so bright and clear. Overall it's an excellent book, and a must for an crocheter's library.

After looking at many crochet books that would give a clear set of instructions and a variety of patterns, I've found that this book and others by this author are excellent. The instructions are easy to follow. Tne pictures are beautiful...bright colors and beautiful patterns. This is a great book for beginners or more advanced and will be well-used as a great resource for anyone wanting to learn more about crocheting.
