Customer Reviews

nice variety of patterns

I checked this book out of the library several times before buying it. It has tank tops, pull over vests, as well as vests that fasten in the front. The pictures and yarn selections may need updating, but my LYS helped me pick out some great yarns and I've already made two vests that I'm very happy with.

recommended

There are some lovely vests and they look pretty easy to do. Especially nice is the diamond shapes on the left in the cover picture.Back cover has two on the left that are nice also. The top is a Noro yarn done sideways and the bottom is an unusual construction for those who want a challenge. Enough info is given so one can substitute the yarns. Book includes lots of helpful tips and schematics for each item. Even suggestions on level of difficulty. Since there aren't many books for crocheting garments, this is highly recommended.
