This book has some terrific patterns. I have made several. The instructions are clear and accurate. Great thing about this is the patterns can be adapted to different yarns and hook sizes. I'm and Intermediate crocheter and have experienced great success with these patterns as gifts. I go through the book and can find something for each person on my gift list!A GREAT buy!

Vanna's Afghans All Through The House

This is a great book all around. There are often two pictures of each afghan; a full size view and a close up view which is helpful in viewing stitches. There are so many worthwhile projects in this book from baby afghans and a full size cat motif to kitchen placemats. All skill levels are present. Some of the easy ones (very easy) are also very beautiful. Color stitch guide at end of book. The best part: the exact Lion Brand yarn (with color name and number) used to make each afghan is listed at the bottom of the page. At the end of the book all the different types of yarns are explained along with an 800 number for ordering. You can also find all that you need under the Lion Brand Website. I am so eager to make many of these afghans. I am nearly done my first one and have bookmarked about a half dozen more.

great pattern book

I've been crocheting most of my life, and this book had the most veriety I've ever seen (and afghans I'd actually make). The work is beautiful and will keep you busy for a very long time. Don't be afraid to change yarns from the recommended, or change colors to suit your taste: I use worsted weight instead of chunky (don't like using chunky yarn). This book includes easy patterns and more complex patterns - I would recommond it for any crocheter.

Beautiful afghans that are fun to crochet.

I love this book, and her other book "A to Z." They both are filled with beautiful afghans that I know I will be crocheting for years to come. These are not your "grandmother's" afghans, but gorgeous designer styles. The instructions are written very clearly, and there are projects for both beginners and advanced crocheters.
