From the Author

I had three goals for this book, because I wanted to make an ambitious 3 books in 1 volume:The complete beginner's guide: To create the clearest, most comprehensive learn-to-crochet tutorials, with ultra close-up photos of every single step, so people really can learn to crochet from my book.The crochet tips guide: To distill all the knowledge and tips I've picked up over my crocheting life into clear, easy to follow instructions.The beautiful pattern book: To create a collection of stylish original accessories and home decor patterns that would make perfect gifts, so you'll want to make everything in the book! The patterns need to be simple to work (but not boring for experienced crocheters) and show some of the variety possible in crochet, so you'll learn more as you make each pattern.I was fortunate that my editors were happy to accommodate my vision, and I've crammed all of these goals into the 264 pages and 750g (that's over 1.5lbs!) of this book. The Idiot's Guides series has had a complete makeover and you'll be very pleasantly surprised when you see the lovely design and hundreds of full-colour photos.This book is different from every other crochet book on the market and excellent value for money, whatever your crochet skill, as it's perfect for both beginners and more experienced crocheters. I hope you'll find it a valuable resource, whether your goal is to learn to crochet, to improve your crochet skills and knowledge, to find a selection of clean, timeless designs to crochet, or all of the above.

I am a knitter~, a knitter who had been working very hard at designing my own garments, knitting fair isle, lace and had set before myself,,( and reached!) all sort of challenges in 12 yrs of knitting~ Why do I include this in my review?? It is because I am a self taught knitter~, one that had to read books to teach myself~ There are not a lot of yarn shops in this area, the closest being about 40 miles away, so I am pretty much on my own here. One day I had a book on the counter which was a gift from a friend on the crocheted art of amigurumi., and my 4 yr old grand daughter here,~ I was going to give this to the library or another friend,,(,because I don't know how to crochet.) I do know some basics, I know the crab stitch ( most knitters do) and the SC ( again same reason) I told my grand daughter that Nana ( me) doesn't know how to crochet, so I couldn't make her the darling tiny animals and tea set she wanted from that book~. I wished I could but I didn't know how~. She came up to me w/ that book opened and said,,,,,,"look Nana, it TELLS you how to do this right in here" This melted my heart. I was determined to learn how to do this. I began to search crochet teaching books and not being new to the teach it to yourself process, I wanted to order the best book I could,,,,,, go thru it and learn,,, and I mean,REALLY learn. I spent a small fortune on books thru the years learning to knit in all manners, all styles and still have much to learn but I wanted to avoid crochet book overload, Just wanted to get the best book available on the subject and begin to crochet so I could eventually make her little turtle or tea set. I tend to avoid the whole " dummy" name in books, bc I am NOT a dummy,, and do not like to even be referenced as one,,,,even in a teaching book. I went to Barnes and Nobel and sat for hours, reading, taking notes, looking at pictures and came home and read reviews. It came down to 2 learning books,,,,,,and this book was THE top book on the list for teaching myself the lovely art of crochet. What was the difference between this one and the other beginner book?? It was the layout. and the way the whole practice pattern selections worked~ this book could take me step by step from , the chain stitch to creating quite a lovely shawl~ going at a rate that was nice and easy..., learning how to crochet those lovely lovely shells I had seen so often, or how to crochet in the round or the humble granny square ~ This was done in such a way that one could realistically go thru this book chapter by chapter, and then practice a square or a round on what was just taught. THe granny square caught my eye also b/c of the possibilities. There are SO many beginning crochet books that are not organized in thought and process which would have the new crochet person confused,and frustrated, ( been there,,done that before in knitting) This book ought to win Beginner Crochet Book Award of The Year ( if there was one!) for the thought, the layout and all that went into writing this book! I can * think* crochet a whole lot more clearly now, the pictures are fabulous which was never a real strong point w/ the dummy book system,,,,but not so in this case! There are plenty of color pictures to guide the novice into making this craft a reality for them. I am super excited about crochet now! While I may always be a knitter first, I find myself thinking,,,,isn't the so and so pattern for the crochet linen stitch scarf on Ravelry easy??And doesn't it produce a really nice fabric using leftover sock yarn? I am at a point where I am looking for projects to use up some of my stash,and crochet seems to be helpful to me in that area in a good way.While hanging around on Ravelry I see a pattern for a full size granny square throw, and it interests me bc it looks SO retro and colorful,,,,,,I think to myself what a GREAT way to use up leftover colorful stash yarns! ( so now,I am way beyond,just thinking amigururumi at this point ,) , but the point is,,,,I know how to make that granny square! I plan to have this book spiral bound so I can lay it flat and write my own notes as I progress. That is the only complaint I have,,,,,I wish this could be spiral bound, but they do not do this often in teaching books or recipe books either. I hope to crochet that cute lace shawl that is a pattern in this boo someday soonk~ I would be willing to bet that from now on,,,,,when I look at yarn , I will wonder,,,,,, Would it be better to be knit into a particular fabric?? ,,OR,,,,a crocheted fabric? I can see lots of things before me,,,,,pillows, shawls, scarves knit lengthwise in the linen stitch and so forth. Love love love this book and can say w/ all certainty that my 4 yr old grand daughter will have her crocheted turtle and tea set and I will have learned a new skill.

I'm a total beginner and I have several books. This is by far the best. It is the mist comprehensive, has great pictures, and the mist detailed instructions. This is the only book that has helped me with specific mistakes I kept repeating.

A great book from June Gilbank. If you haven't discovered PlanetJune or June Gilbank this is a great introduction. This book is designed for the beginner to intermediate crocheter. I consider myself in the intermediate category and there are several topics in here that I will refer to so I can improve my skills. The book starts with the basics of yarn and hooks. Then to making chains and all the basic stitches all the way to the more complex stitches. Each chapter builds on the one before. There are projects with each chapter that allow you to practice what you have learn. June always has excellent photos of what she is showing. This is true with any of her patterns. June writes some of the clearest and easiest to understand patterns out there. There are 17 new patterns. (actually more as some of the patterns have 2-3 options.) In addition to just crochet stitches and patterns June provides instructions on blocking and care of your finished product. I wish I could say more about this book, but I really need to go and crochet a project from June now!

This is a wonderful book for either learning to crochet or improving your crochet abilities with new techniques. The author walks you step-by-step through the most basic parts of crocheting, including yarn selection, hook size etc., and then builds on these basic skills so that you can manage any of the projects in the book. There are loads of pictures to visually demonstrate the different techniques, and the written instructions are very clear and explained thoroughly. An absolute beginner who has never done crochet could easily learn from this book.The patterns are also wonderful. They are geared mainly for the home with a few patterns for wearable items such as a hat or fingerless mitts. The patterns are easy to follow with very detailed instructions, and they allow you to try the new skills that you have learned from the book. Even the practice projects at the end of the first few chapters are excellent and will produce something beautiful and useful. This is one of the few books I have purchased where I like almost every pattern in the book and could see myself actually making more than one or two of the listed patterns. That is a rarity in and of itself.The book is not just for beginners. I consider myself to be at the intermediate level, and there are still new things for me to learn in this book. I think even if you are advanced, there will be some tips and tricks to help make a homemade item into a professional looking item. Thus, I think this book has something to offer everyone.Overall, this is an excellent book on how to learn and perfect your crochet technique. If someone wanted to learn from a book, this would be at the top of my list of recommendations. I learned from a book many years ago, and I wish that this book had been available then.

This is my favorite book on crocheting! I wanted to start up again after many years of not doing it at all and was clueless where to begin. I was able to create this ruana out of buffalo wool yarn, and it was surprisingly easy. This is the easiest book to follow with the clearest instructions and really helpful pictures to follow along with. Highly recommend!
