 Crocheting for Dummies November 9, 2006

A very user friendly book. A great value for the price.
Great Crochet Reference! August 4, 2006
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is the best beginner book on the subject of crochet that I own. Stitch-n-Bitch is great, but doesn't go into as much detail on some aspects. The explanations in CFD are clear, with good visual aids, and the projects are realistic for beginners. (I learned to crochet as a child in the 70s but am now returning to it and actually finishing some items now that it's back in style). You can't go wrong with this book--I refer to it again and again.
Very Good! June 4, 2006

I have been crocheting for almost a year, but I never felt I learned how to do it right, and after reading this book I found out I wasn't! But, I was able to figure out what I was doing wrong, and was able to fix it! They give straightforward instructions and illustrations to help! I will definatley recomend this to friends.

Excellent book. Anyone wanting to learn to crochet will truly enjoy this book. It has every stitch you would want to learn and it does the description in a way that you can't help but learn it. Good luck to anyone that is just starting to crochet or even those that have been crocheting and want to learn a new stitch. This is a must for your stitching library.
 You can never crochet too much! February 8, 2006

At first when my lovely wife handed me this book and said "read this, I can't bear another crocheting session with you until you improve," I was a little hurt and self-conscious. However, after perusing this work I realized I really was a dummy when it came to crocheting! There was so much more to it than I ever imagined, and now we are crocheting together as frequently as our schedules and energy permit. I am getting older and my fingers aren't as nimble as they once were, but she seems pleased with my progress in mastering the art of crocheting, and that encourages me to keep finding ways to better myself in this skill. Every couple needs a hobby, and this book will open your eyes to our favorite hobby. What do you say honey, a few more hours of crocheting this evening?
