Refreshing!December 19, 2008 Most books of this nature are targeted at either the beginner covering just the basics or they are quite advanced with complex patterns that require competent understanding. This book is great because it's a complete course in crochet! It assumes you are a beginner so it takes you through the basics and then gradually takes you through intermediate and more advanced patterns. I've known how to knit since I was a child but I've never tried crochet - it's a completely different craft and this book has been invaluable!
The book is modern, accessible and most importantly, easy to follow!! It's quite substantial and gives you a broad range of fashionable patterns to try out ranging from little projects (brooches, scarves, small bags ) to bigger ones (shrugs, sweaters, blankets). Start with one of the little projects - this book is great value and is sure to get you crocheting in no time! :)
Crochet Queen!November 17, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This was my first attempt at crocheting and I'm definately not a natural (took me a long time to pick it up and I'm still not great) but this book is excellent, the illustrations and descriptions are really clear. The designs are brilliant and really gave me the motivation to carry on with it (even when I was making a complete hash of it!) Would definately recommend this book to anyone wanting to take up the craft!
The Best!!October 8, 2008 If you want to start crochet then this is the book to get. Every step explained clearly, instructions are simple yet comprehensive. Nothing boring though, as the writer's got a great sense of humour ! Also nice projects to practice your new skills
BRILLIANT!!!July 30, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought this after a recommendation from a friend. I had never ever crocheted before in my life and from buying the book on a thursday I was creating my first grannie square by tuesday.
If you read through the instructions slowly, you will soon pick up the knack of this fantastic craft - Im about to start the pattern for a flower scarf (only a week ago I thought Id never understand all the lingo and the diagrams, but again, Debbie makes it very easy to pick it all up).
Im totally obsessed by it now and would highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn from the beginning. One thing - if you read a paragraph and dont totally understand it, re-read it and just take your time with the detail and it soon falls into place and starts to make sense.
Great for beginnersJune 4, 2008 This is a terrific book for beginners, Debbie goes through all the basics in a easy and inspiring way. Some books presume that you already know which way to insert the hook, or pull through etc. Debbie takes you through all that like it's a piece of cake! I absolutley loved the book and still use it as a reference guide. Viva le DIY!
