So glad that I have it, since it also teaches you how to make all these stitches as well. While this is a phenomenal book and great for a crocheter at any stage of learning, it lacks any guidelines or help for the left-handed person struggling to make sense of the right-handed instructions. I've been crocheting off and on for the past 23 years, so in many ways I can ignore or reverse directions pertaining to a righty versus a lefty But I know there are other lefties for which doing so is either impossible or a greatly complicated task.

For this reason, I hesitate to give this book a five-star rating. That being said, the pictures and detailed pattern information are wonderful to have at my fingertips. There are several stitch patterns and combinations that I've either never heard of or I've never tried. I'm excited to get to try out some of these patterns! One person found this helpful.

Exactly as I had hoped. Informative, excellent photos, and even covers basic Tunisian stitches. You must be able to grasp basic pattern symbols but that is covered as well. This partnered with your favorite how to video makes learning new stitches easy. Use it all the time for ideas for new patterns and edging. Spiral bound makes it easy to read and follow instructions. Great diagrams and plain language.

I have been crocheting for many years; however, I could do a few stitches that my mom showed me. So everything I made was those three stitches. With this book, they show you step by step how to do different stitches and how to put those stitches together to make different patterns.

Crochet the Complete Guide

Now, I am able to do different patterns with the helpful picture tutorials. Downside, I still cannot read a pattern very well but I can make beautiful blankets and other items with the help of this book. This is two thumbs up for anyone! A lot of crochet stitches with pictures, patterns and directions. See all 59 reviews. Most recent customer reviews. Published 4 months ago.

Unfortunately the book can't be used as a beginners book for the UK because the stitches given are American crochet, what they call single crochet we in the UK call double cro This is just such a wonderful book, it is spiral bound and laid out just like I would wish. Unfortunately the book can't be used as a beginners book for the UK because the stitches given are American crochet, what they call single crochet we in the UK call double crochet, their double crochet is treble.

    It is such a shame, this would otherwise be the perfect starter book. Mar 30, Lil' Grogan rated it it was ok Shelves: More like a quick guide for beginners. Sections on finishing and going beyond basics felt limited to me. One extra star for charted stitch patterns, but found her multiples odd you do a foundation chain, then turn and chain up to the next row?

    Another book that advertises something it is not in the title I'm getting really tired of this.
