With clear, concise instructions and good, simple patterns, the "Chicks with Sticks" guide you through learning how to crochet. The book gives you a good background in choosing the right yarn for your projects, and walks you carefully through the beginning stitches and a few cool techniques. The illustrations are good, but lacking in a little detail which would have made them perfect. Each project builds on the strengths of the previous ones, and each chapter adds a bit more depth to your knowledge. By the time you finish, it feels like you can begin to tackle just about anything.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 082300676X, Paperback)

Anyone can do it. Anyone. Stop thinking. Stop being afraid. Stop sweating, you’ll get the hook all damp. Yes, with the help of the Chicks with Sticks, anyone can learn to crochet in just a weekend--and by Sunday night, beginners will know what they’re doing and have the confidence to do it. Advanced beginners (the ones who have already made an afghan square) will have fresh, fashion-forward projects to wear around town. First up is an introductory section on tools and materials. Then the Chicks present a series of lessons that each introduce a new skill and patterns that help readers learn and master it before moving on. The more than 30 projects range from cool belts to stunning scarves, from felted bags to stylish wraps and sweaters. Throughout, the Chicks with Sticks are standing by with quips and anecdotes, support and sisterhood. Learning to crochet has never been so entertaining...and so empowering!
