I got this book because it shows how to start working in rounds using a technique that most books don't cover. This method allows the center to be drawn up so that the center hole is closed, providing a different effect from the usual method. The pictures and the instructions are clear so that the technique could be easily mastered. I love it!
Great Book!!

This is a great book. I checked it out at the library and it was so helpful I had to add it to my library. It has 10 cool projects that "includes" hats, bags, fancy edgings and with easy to understand instructions and photos.
