A Wonderful Book!!!

This is a great book. It is full of wonderful, easy projects that look good too!! I've found all kinds of things that I'd like to make. Many are rated beginner (which I am), and I know that I could make many of these projects. There's a total of 76 different projects. Here's a breakdown of what's in the book. Wonderful Warmers--This chapter has hats, mittens, socks, scarves and sweaters.(10 patterns) All-Around Afghans--Afghans, of course! (9 patterns) Cuddly Comforts--a game, toys, blanket, stuffed animals.(9 patterns) Handy Helpers--purses, bags, a basket.(9 patterns) Furry Friends--Projets for pets.(9 patterns) Sensational Seniors--For older folks--though I thought many would be fine for any age--cardigan, heat pack, shawls, booties. (10 patterns) Tiny Treasures--Projects for babies--blankets, sweaters, headbands. (11 patterns) Domestic Delights--afghans, throws, hot pads, rug, doilies. (9 patterns) I can see returning to this book again and again. I like the inspirational quotes and sidebars scattered througout the book. There is also a list in the back of the book of organizations to donate crocheted items too. I don't think you'll be disappointed with this book. Along with Crochet From the Heart, this is one of my favorites.

wide variety of projects

You name it, it's got it. Adult, children, and baby clothes (even preemie), dog and cat items, afghans, totes, stuffed toys, cell phone holder, water bottle tote, etc.

Something for everyone!

If you're looking for a book that has easy projects for gifts that will please...you'll find something in this book. There are projects for beginners to advanced and the pictures are great. Some are quite basic and use little shaping...perfect for trying crochet out!
