This is a collection of projects by various designers. It also includes good basic crochet directions, and encourages crocheters to substitute other yarns for the ones chosen by the designer.

Two downsides: The patterns are not given in diagram form, and the felted project did not point out that the wollen yarn has to be WOOL, and can't have been treated for maschine washing.

Not something I would have bought, but I'm glad to have access to it, as there are a few quite useful ideas.
