- Not as easy as you think
- In Teach yourself visually crocheting. I feel they were showing people with some knowledge of crocheting anyway. If you are a novice like I am you need more angles shots of the stitches. Especially beginning and ending the rows.

- A good refresher course or beginner book
- I hadn't done any crocheting for years and chose this book for it's simplicity. I was not disappointed. I can skip around and review things I forgot without wading through it all. On the other hand, if you are a beginner, the details are excellent and you will want to 'wade' through the entire book. The pictures are invaluable.

- User friendly for the crochet-illiterate
- For years, I have loved crocheting blankets and scarves for family and friends. I tended to stay in the 'safe' patterns because I simply couldn't understand the crochet jargon and would get extremely frustrated everytime I looked at a picture and then saw the unreadable mess of instructions for it. This book breaks down all of the technical aspects and gives you patterns and instructions in PLAIN ENGLISH! It also answers a lot of basic questions that other pattern books neglect. I feel more confident now and I'm trying new patterns that I would have shied away from before. Buy this book for the foundational information and enjoy the added confidence and skill that you can get from it!

- Not as visual as it should be
- Part of the reason I bought this book was to learn some new crochet stitches; the problem is, the book is not as visual as it promises to be. Some critical pictures are left out at crucial points that leave the crocheter with nothing but a description of how to complete a stitch or continue subsequent rows. I had hoped to avoid such things with this book. I have learned some new stitches, but I expected to be able to master all the stitches in this book with its visual training technique.
