Published in 2007, this book is a delicious collection of crochet edgings and some motifs (especially flowers), complete with color pictures and written instructions. What’s missing? Schematics. Susan Smith has assembled a pretty collection of trims that is well displayed in this attractive book, but schematics would have improved things.
The Double Rings Belt on page 97 (project # 149) is an intricate looking belt that can be made fairly simply. It’s a stunner. I also like project #114, Framed Flower, and #119, Golden Leaf. These are different than others I’ve seen. There are some cute things here that can be adapted for a variety of uses.
If you don’t already own a similar book, this might be a nice addition to your crochet library. It’s widely available used online. Originally, it listed for $21.95. It is 128 pages, published by St. Martin’s Griffin in the USA, with ISBN 9780312359829.
