This is an admirable book on the basics of crocheting. The pictures explaining the stitches are unusually clear and the explanations are well written. There are also sections on yarns, hooks, finishing and care, as well as very useful descriptions of various accessories that are available. One cavil - the author recommends using safety pins as stitch markers. I don't like regular metal safety pins as the thread often gets caught in the spring - at least make sure that you are using non-rusting pins! Better still, there are plastic safety pins that don't have a spring. There are patterns featuring different types of crochet: granny squares, flowers, circular. Probably not for the experienced crocheter, but excellent for the beginner, or those of us who need a refresher from time to time. Comment | Was this review helpful to you? (Report this)
