Stackpole Books Crochet in a Weekend: 29 Quick-to-Stitch Sweaters, Tops, Shawls & More

Started Friday and finished Sunday. Just omitted tassels. Easy to follow patterns.

I bought this book as an introduction to crocheting patterns and stuff other than amiguri and beanies. But as soon as I started reading the instructions I was already stumped. Most books I've purchased provided instructions for each stitch type in the front of the book you can refer to, but nothing came with this one. I have to Google what some of these stitches mean and was still stumped by how the instructions were written. I wish there was a way to ask questions to the community. I had hoped the book would provide links online for tutorials etc to but no luck. It's now past the return period and I have a book I can't use... Otherwise I would've loved to have tried some of these designs

I love this book. It has a variety of wearables. I have made several already and have several more on my list to make. Salena’s patterns are well written and tested and if there there are questions she will respond.

I did not like this book. I felt the styles were nothing special or nothing new and unique. Any style in this book you can find elsewhere.

Good book - Good Condition will use them again
