I am a novice that began more than 40 years ago. Currently, I am retired on disability living in a Nursing Home. The craft makes my days short as it produces a beautiful visual output using time, materials, and labor. I love crocheting! I love what I do. This book is instrumental in my refresher self-training. There are patterns to create specifically focusing on the subject-matter written about in each Chapter. The Book does a good job introducing and explaining the basics of Crochet. The only mishap I see to be corrected, and that because I am using Kindle App on my Android device, the book's Illustrations are cropped off on the -b sides thus leaving 50% more or less visible. Maybe someone found a workable and doable solution. I will welcome it, thank you.

I bought this book mostly for chart type patterns because I have some amazing dress patterns in crochet charts that I would love to make but they're mostly in foreign languages and the description for this book said that it would teach someone chart type crochet so that even patterns in other languages would be possible. All the information in this book was information I had already found, for free, by googling stuff on the web. The designs aren't really anything I'm interested in making, and over all, I wouldn't have purchased this if I'd known how little information about chart type crochet was in there. IF the pattern is in English, sure, this would be plenty of help, but there was no information at all about interpreting charts in other languages other than the universal symbols which I already knew. There was nothing about recognizing repeats or knowing how many repeats are necessary or anything. Hope that helps.

What a fantastic book! I wanted to be able to crochet and had searched a lot online for tutorials. Very often this book came up in my searches. It is beautifully clear and easy to follow. The print is clear and everything is well illustrated. It is very clearly written. So far I have made a scarf and a jumper and I am feeling quite chuffed with myself, thanks to this brilliant book.

I have been crocheting for 60 years or so. This book has good tips even for a seasoned crocheter like me. Some fun patterns. The illustrations on making the stitches, and the written instructions are good and clear. I highly recommend this especially to beginners....but as I say it has some good information for those who have been at it for awhile.
