Got this for my girlfriend who crochets. Very informative, easy to use instructions, cute items to be made! Suggested for those who might not know what to do for any crochet projects!

The eighth book in the One-Skein Wonders series does not disappoint, and even more delightful is that it's for crocheters! While several earlier titles include a token project or two, this volume celebrates all designs crochet.

The projects are arranged by standard categories: hats, socks, tops, blankets, and numerous types of accessories. In addition to a standard index is one by yarn weight. These are helpful for those situations when you have yarn but aren't quite sure what you want to make. Many different tips are included to ensure successful projects. Two I like are nice reminders for hats: a larger hat can be grown into, a smaller one is pointless and to keep bonnet tie lengths short. Symbol diagrams are included where feasible. Attention to layout means the symbol key and abbreviation chart are facing each other in the print copy.

If you crochet and wish to expand your repertoire, I recommend this versatile addition to your bookshelf.

This book has a lot of great patterns to try. I have made a few of these items, and will continue to make more for future babies that family and friends will have. The patterns are easy to follow, the pictures are simply adorable. Great book for beginners to advanced crocheters. Must have in your library.
