Crochet for Beginners

I got this for my granddaughter. I crochet and she wanted to learn. This book has easy to follow instructions. She was making scarfs in j ust a week!

As a newbie to crocheting, this book is a great resource in helping to grasp the art of crocheting. The book uses illustrations and actual pictures to help teach the art. The illustrations are very clear and detailed. With each new stitch, the book provides an enlarged picture of what the stitch should look like. The book also provides pictures and instructions on some gift-worthy items!

Love this book! I started crocheting a few months ago and picked this book up and it really has helped me with learning different stitches! I'm frequently referring back to the book for different stitches depending on which project I'm working on. Very well written and easy to understand even as a complete beginner. Plus it comes with 10 free patters as well!

helpful hints, feedback for beginners, diagrams

Nice book for beginners. I have been crocheting for years and as I teach friends, I wanted a nice book for them to see and visualize how the stitches look. This book definitely fits the bill. There are a few cute patterns in the back, however, if you are comfortable crocheting I would not buy it for the patterns. But if you want to know how to crochet and desire to see stitches step by step on paper, this is a wonderful book. I also like that it shows the ins and outs of crocheting, as well as the tools, what the different size yarns and hooks mean, and how to use it all together. Great book for beginners.

purchased as gifts for a couple of budding crocheters. I thought the instructions were really clear and helpful. One of them at least has been working on learning the stitches and how to read patterns and finds the book's instructions clear and easy to follow.

Not great at explaining things. Ended up watching videos to learn.

I am using this book to teach ladies at a retirement community to crochet. It is a big help. Thanks
