Reviews of Crocheting in Plain English: Easy-to-follow lessons in patterns, Sensible solutions to nagging problems, The only book any crocheter will ever Need.
This is a good book for beginners, but I feel that you do need to be warned that there is ALOT of reading, and the print is rather small. The diagrams are not the best in the world, but the instructions are written just as the title states "in plain English". There is a great deal of details in this book regarding anything & everything that deals with Crocheting.
Review #2
Excellent for all levels
I've been crocheting seriously for over ten years now and this is the book to which I refer everytime I need to recall a specific motif, or, get an idea for a new motif. But this book would be terrific for beginners as well as experienced "yarners". My sister thought she was holding the hook "the wrong way" until I showed her that, yes, there are two ways to hold that hook! Excellent and easy to understand!

Crochet in Plain English
I am a beginner and this book has been my Bible. She covers about everything a beginner should know. I refer to it constantly.
