User Friendly For The Crochet-illiterate 08 October, 2008 For years, I have loved crocheting blankets and scarves for family and friends. I tended to stay in the 'safe' patterns because I simply couldn't understand the crochet jargon and would get extremely frustrated everytime I looked at a picture and then saw the unreadable mess of instructions for it. This book breaks down all of the technical aspects and gives you patterns and instructions in PLAIN ENGLISH! It also answers a lot of basic questions that other pattern books neglect. I feel more confident now and I'm trying new patterns that I would have shied away from before. Buy this book for the foundational information and enjoy the added confidence and skill that you can get from it!

Not As Visual As It Should Be 23 May, 2008 Part of the reason I bought this book was to learn some new crochet stitches; the problem is, the book is not as visual as it promises to be. Some critical pictures are left out at crucial points that leave the crocheter with nothing but a description of how to complete a stitch or continue subsequent rows. I had hoped to avoid such things with this book. I have learned some new stitches, but I expected to be able to master all the stitches in this book with its visual training technique.

The Best Crocheting Resources Book 13 May, 2008 I have purchased a few crocheting books but this is by far the best book on the market. Great pictures, diagrams and step by step instructions, if you can only purchase one book make it this one!

A Good Refresher Course Or Beginner Book 28 October, 2008 I hadn't done any crocheting for years and chose this book for it's simplicity. I was not disappointed. I can skip around and review things I forgot without wading through it all. On the other hand, if you are a beginner, the details are excellent and you will want to 'wade' through the entire book. The pictures are invaluable.
