This is an amazing beginner crochet book。 I’ve only been crocheting for about two years and have been trying to teach myself through You-tube with varying degree of success。 This book has great explanations， color photos， and is understandable。 It starts with explanations of tools and supplies， going into types and sizes of hooks， yarns， and more。 I learned about thicknesses of yarns， fiber content， color lots and how important these things are and what they mean。 I never knew this。 She also exp This is an amazing beginner crochet book。 I’ve only been crocheting for about two years and have been trying to teach myself through You-tube with varying degree of success。 This book has great explanations， color photos， and is understandable。 It starts with explanations of tools and supplies， going into types and sizes of hooks， yarns， and more。 I learned about thicknesses of yarns， fiber content， color lots and how important these things are and what they mean。 I never knew this。 She also explains what the abbreviations used in patterns mean and types of stitches and how to do them。 Then there are the patterns – easy ones that you can follow to make your own projects。 She includes things like granny square coaster， hat， dishcloth， pillow， afghan， and a couple other things。 Recommendation: If you’re new to the craft， or even if you’ve been trying things out for a while like me， this book belongs on your shelf。 Actually， it’s good enough to be with your supplies so you can refer to it。 I received this as an ebook but it is definitely on my “buy” list for the physical book。 Disclaimer: Thanks to Callisto Publishing for providing this review copy。 I received a final and/or advanced reader copy of this book with the hope that I will leave my unbiased opinion。 I was not required to leave a review， positive or otherwise， and my opinions are just that… My Opinions。 I am posting this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR， Part 255: “Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising” 。。。more
