Oh how I love this book!!!! Sarah is teaching me how to crochet again. It's just fabulous to see how many neat things you can do with yarn and crochet hooks! Again, amazing pictures, fantastic step by step guides. I love how they show you all these neat patterns for squares and then show you what you can do with color. Fantastic book for anyone who loves to crochet!

Many wonderful squares and a great source of inspiration. Note of caution - there are MANY errors in this book, so be flexible for using your grey matter to deduce what should happen in a pattern. Most of the errors are easily identified thanks to the great pictures. Another source of irritation, the joins between rounds/colors are not well done, in that they are not uniformly designed to enable completing a multi-colored square in a solid color. Again, you can easily determine how to best show more finish off by reading ahead or making slip stitches, if you look ahead and think about how the item will work up. I would not recommend this book for a beginner crocheter, however, because of the errors and awkward joins. show less

I love crocheting. That being said, I love this book. I find the instructions really easy to follow, and there are tons of great patterns in this book. There are not 200 different patterns (towards the end it becomes one pattern in four colors). There are probably well over a hundred patterns in this book, and I've had a lot of fun mixing and matching them. This is a great book for crocheters that need projects that are easily portable. A single square doesn't take up much space, and you show more won't need to lay them all out until your ready to stitch them together. These patterns can also be transformed. I've made a few scarves from the patterns in this book. show less

One of the best crochet books on the market for those who love the "granny afghans" Easy to follow and suberb photos throughout. Love the combination of different squares that compliment each other. A crochet bible that I always return too.
