Great addition to crochet library

I have been crocheting for many, many years but this book explained things simply with great photos. It answered a lot of questions I have had and showed me new ways to do things. I would highly recommend this for the beginner as well as for the experienced crocheter.

Very complete resource

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.

Awesome Book!

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.
