- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5cool crochet projects
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Read the ebook version from the library. I liked about 1/3 of the patterns but loved the one for the rose coat. The illustrating pictures are tiny on the ebook so it was hard to see details. I liked the variety of projects and styles. I can do simple projects and I learned a few things about harder projects that I think I could be successful at making.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Ok. Not so different from other books out there. Ok patterns; didn't try any so not sure if the instructions were complete.
