How To Crochet Vol. I. A Complete Beginners Guide with Step by Step instructions with Pictures!: Learn the Basics from Hook Selection , Yarn type and the Different Patterns. Become an Expert by Beatrice Crimbleton
My rating: 2 of 5 stars
I pick up a lot of books on crocheting and other arts and crafts. Mostly I am looking for my next project. Even instructional books, like this one, have some cool patterns I might not have seen elsewhere. But, alas! This book doesn’t do it for me.
Yes, the instructions are written fairly well. I mean the language is easy to understand. But the font is greyed out in a lot of places where I couldn’t read it without getting a headache. Thank goodness, and a few aunts, I know how to crochet already and I didn’t have to start with this book.
And though this is illustrated, there just are not enough, nor accurate pictures to help a novice. And I found no new ideas for my own collection of patterns. Sigh!
