Great guide to crochet, clear instructions, plain English and easy to inderstand. The pictures are bright, colourful and a great learning aid to the instructions. You can see clearly the stitches and how to achieve these. It’s a great book and helpful to those new to crochet and the experienced crocheter.

Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for a free copy for an honest opinion

As an experience crocheter I was absolutely thrilled with this book. The stitches are suitable for beginners right through to the more experienced. Each stitch is clearly described and the instructions are easy to follow.

The picture are brilliantly clear too

200:stitches which would be suitable for blankets right through to a delicate shawl .....the patterns are only for the stitches but they are so clear it’s easy to see how they could be used.

I will definitely be referring to this often

I am not an expert crocheter by any means however I am also not a beginner. I have mastered the basic stitches but have always had difficulty learning the more intricate stitches mainly due to the lack of visuals and my poor attempts at trying to understand the meanings of symbols. So I essentially would give up, with the hopes one day someone would show me. This book is simple in its idea but opened a whole new world of crochet stitches to me, and enlightened me to the meanings of those pesky symbols. Each stitch is plainly explained with a picture, or many for some of the truly intricate ones. So easy to follow, as soon as I mastered one I wanted to move onto the next without pause. I was lucky enough to receive an advanced copy, and will definitely be buying a copy for myself. Wonderful!
