Crochet for Beginners: A Stitch Dictionary with Step-by-Step Illustrations and 10 Easy Projects

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!

Love the step by step illustrations. I’m visual and this really helped to understand.

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.

I recently became crocheting, and I thought it would be nice to have a handy reference book in case I forgot what some stitches were called. Unfortunately, I just didn’t find it to be as useful for me as I was hoping. Firstly I appreciate appreciate all the diagrams but I think I actually probably would’ve been better served by pictures rather than drawings of some of these stitches. And then secondly the patterns are extremely detailed in a way that’s almost confusing. I started crocheting using Woobles and these instructions are so much more complicated than those. Same with when I did a large picnic blanket from Sirdar. For me personally, I would give this three stars, but I will allow that other people learn in different ways.

Clear instructions and pictures are easy to understand

Gave this to my 10 year old granddaughter for Christmas. She is going crazy with her crocheting. The book has helped her learn more stitches and motivated her to do more.

Great for beginners. East instructional guide.

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