A Wonderful Book; Choice of Crochet and Knitting Patterns! Looked through this book yesterday and today to look for a pattern to make some squares to donate. Wonderful squares and they have difficulty ratings for each project; basically easy and the next level up. Easy is designated by one crochet hook; the next level by two hooks. For knitting, easy is one pair of knitting needles and the next step up in difficulty is two pair of knitting needles. I believe there are 3 hook/needle squares also.
Inspiration needed? Look at this book! I have so much inspiration from this book! I only wish they would include border ideas with each pattern. Not enough books do that. Otherwise, it is an excellent book to have for those times when you need to start a project and are not sure what you want to do next.
Baby to go! Great book. I like the different patterns and options she provides. Jan Eaton always has great ideas and this book provides many jumping off points for anything I want to create. It stimulates my imagination and makes me want to grab my needles and knit a baby blanket.
