INTERESTING AND ORIGINAL DESIGNS Very interesting and original designs, a real wide variety. But.some of them were too hard for me, and I've been crocheting for 35 years. Maybe that's just me.. Celeste said Great book. this is a great book with some really good patterns. The price was good and the book arrived quickly. The patterns are really easy to follow. I would recommend to anyone who likes to make afghans. "Pretty baby blankets" according to Qaterra. I was really disappointed. These are all quite small, with little if any instruction on how to make them bigger. No chain multiples given, etc. Had I realized every pattern in this book is so very small, I'd not have ordered the book.
