Robyn Chachula is my favorite crochet designer because her designs are modern, feminine, and unique. With that in mind, this book did not disappoint me. I was a little bit nervous that it is written entirely in the visual crochet style, because I am not much for pattern charts; I prefer my patterns to be written out. However, Robyn assured me that the book's tutorials would guide me through the process, and so far she has been right. I have made a scarf from this book's patterns, and I am working on some other items as well. The designs are really cool, and eventually I will make most, if not all, of them. ( )
