Summary: Very Pleased
Comment: I was looking for a small book "that had it all" persay, and I came across this little books sitting in a used bookstore. I think this is a great book for someone looking to start crocheting, without too much heavy, overbearing history to bog down what your looking to do...Crochet.
It has beautiful old patterns, that I haven't seen in new books, the whole feel gives you the idea and feel that Grandma has sat down and taught you to crochet. It's a smaller book (my copy is 8 inches by 5 inches) so it's great to throw in a bag with some small balls of yard to take with you anywhere.
Lots of folks have said different things about this book, good bad and indifferent, but I found it easy to follow, great to learn from, and for used copies being only 2.95 cents you can't really go wrong.
Happy Crocheting!

Summary: Boring, uninspired Crocheting
Comment: I agree to a point with Lee On The Road about the Nancy Bush book providing a better traveling Crocheting experience, however it provides little information on how to carry the required equipment whilst travelling - and I believe that is something Lee ought to keep in mind.
This book, however, is the dullest book I have seen regarding the subject - and as such I have to disagree with the other comments featured here. The choice range is limited, and dare I say, stuck firmly in the sixties.
Instead, I firmly recommend the Big Book of Favorite Crochet Patterns with the cheerful introduction by Mary Waldrep.
Rating: 3
Summary: Interesting crochet action
Comment: As Happy mentioned,it's good to see the different styles of stiches laid out in detail. However, I will shortly be spending a lot of time away from home, and find the recent travel crochet book by Nancy Bush a lot more pertinant to my own particular requirements.
Happy Crocheting everyone !
