Review :
There are many, many how-to books on crochet already on the market--so why the need for yet another beginner's guide? Because Learn to Crochet in 10 Easy Lessons features not just a close-up pictorial review of stitches and techniques, but 28 patterns that encourage beginner success. Other pluses include right- or left-handed holding and crochet directions, definitions of basic crochet shorthand instructions, and close-up color photos that leave nothing to wonder.
Learn to Crochet in 10 Easy Lessons is far more attractive and easier to use than most beginner's crochet guides, and is highly recommended for any individual or collection that wants to learn the most in the least amount of time.-- "Donovan's Literary Services"
