The book is real clear and easy to follow but the yarn in the kit to work with is HORRIBLE. Since I am a knitter I wanted to learn crocheting too. Bought this book that comes with a kit with yarn, hook etc. It splits and my hands turned blue/green from the cheap dye that was used. Tip: see if you can get the book without the kit since the kit is not worth a penny.
Great book if you are starting out crocheting. Lots of step by step illustrations of the different stitches. Also some really cute patterns. Highly recommend if you are wanting to learn how to crochet.
The Klutz crochet book makes learning to crochet fun and simple. My 12 year old daughter has followed the patterns as well and has successfully completed several projects without any help.The accesories are great too. The patterns walk you through step by step and make something that looks complicated very simple. I've made all the projects which are cute and up-to-date. The kit includes stitch markers, a little bag, a hook, and fabulous, super-soft yarn. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to learn.
I highly reccommend it for 8 and older. I crochet now & then and just make up my own designs. This book was an excellent refresher and helped me do some patterned projects while traveling in the car. I go back to it again and again when I can't remember what a certain stitch is called in a pattern. I like the little travel case that came with it as well - it holds plenty of needles.
I picked this up from the kids section of a book store and thought it was perfect. I'm 22 years old and currently handicap from a car wreck. It has great instructions and is very easy to follow. I've been wanting to learn crochet for years, but never had time. Finally with time on my hands I started looking at beginner books and dvds, but all those adult beginner books didn't seem written for beginners to me. I did all the projects the book had and can't wait to do more crochet projects as now after reading this book the adult beginner books are much easier. I highly suggest this kit for anyone wanting to learn crochet.
