Book Reviews of Hooked Scarves: 20 Easy Crochet Projects

Book Review: Great Book!
Summary: 5 Stars

I am just a beginner in crocheting, just 2 months started in fact! I found this book in the local library, and fell in love with it. Let me list the reasons:
1)Easy to understand directions.
2)Clear color photographs
3)Close-ups of how to do each particular crochet stitch
4)A comprehensive side-panel on what materials needed, what stitches are needed, how much of each material, etc.
5)All the patterns are beautiful.

Some colors of yarn chosen in the patterns in the book aren't too pleasing, but the patterns themselves are worth each penny for the cost of the book. For example, the scarf on the cover! The color of yarn is hideous in my opinion, but I tried out the pattern anyway with a solid color yarn (from Cron). The scarf looked amazing. Hard to describe, so readers have to try it out for themselves. (This is a classic example on how not to judge a book by its cover)!

Oh...I forgot one thing: 6.)The book has a spiral binding on the inside, so when you have the book open the pages stay open. No need for paperweights or awkward holding of the book while you're trying to stitch.

These are the reasons why I gave this book a 5-star rating.

Beginners and experts alike will enjoy this crochet book. I highly recommend it.

P.S. Even the person who taught me how to crochet fell in love with the book, and she ordered her own copy!
