I love buying books that can open a whole new world to someone.

I love to crochet and I love to spread that love to other people.

At the moment I am teaching a 12 year old girl to crochet.

I can only meet her every couple of weeks so books like

this are ideal.

It means she can carry on learning in the gap between us meeting.

The book is split into chapters dealing with each

part of learning to crochet:

Getting to Know Your Materials

Getting Started: Forget the Chain.

Chains: Your Foundation

Basic Crochet Stitches

Gauge

Working in the Round

Perfecting Techniques

Pattern Reading

The book takes you step-by-step through each stage.

There are easy to understand instructions and pictures

to help you on your way.

The book is in a really to ease format and is ideal

for most ages.

There is also information that can help someone who already crochets.

The book describes each stitch, how it should look on both sides

of the project to the different parts of the stitch.

After completing this book the learner will

be well equipped to deal with most projects

that they decide to make.

This is also the sort of book that if you

aren't sure you are doing something right,

you can easily pick it up and check.

I especially love the Perfecting Techniques section.

The different hints and tips for finishing techniques are brilliant.

I think anyone who purchases or receives this book

will love it.

They are sure to learn to crochet in an easy relaxed format :-)

I received a copy of the book to review.
