Super Easy Crochet for Beginners, Learn Crochet with Simple Stitch Patterns, Projects, and Tons of Tips by Deborah Burger
I am a self-taught and always feel as if I missed something as I just create without reading. This book is such a great resource of information.
It starts with an introduction about crocheting.
Getting started explains what you will need and why and the differences between what is offered.
Shaded areas on the pages are important information and tips and tricks. Chart sizes come in shaded areas also.
Yarns are explained and how to use the right size hook for yarn weight you get for your project.
Pictures of how to start off crocheting are included, very detailed descriptions and pictures.
More information about stitching and other aspects of crocheting are discussed also.
Each project starts with a title, summary of what you are making and shaded areas about what you will learn, what you need, yarn, hooks and notions.
Directions are given with pictures and helpful tips in shaded areas.
As you go along you will learn more stitches and other techniques, easy to do it this way rather than tell you about all the stitches and really complicate things.
As you advance you will learn even more things about crocheting.
Love the samples of finished projects. Troubleshooting tips are also given so you won't get lost along the way.
Once you learn a few stitches the sky's the limit as you can make anything you want.
practice is key, don't get frustrated. This is a relaxing, calming time to spend daily.
Other interesting things are brought up: color wheel and even granny squares among other techniques that are fun to do.
Some designs are even charted and you are taught how to figure out which stitches use what symbol. you'll get the hang of that also.
Abbreviations and index are included at the end along with about the author.
If you take your time and do all the pages a half hour every day you will see your progress and it will take you months to enjoy learning.
A KEEPER!
Received this review copy from Quarto Publishing Group – Quarry, New Shoe Press via NetGalley and this is my honest opinion.
